Sir,
The younger generation of 2008 is quite different from the generation of 1947. You will agree at that time those who chalked out the nations destiny were not that young , although some of them pretended to be young in mindset.
In the year 2008, the ideas and visions of the younger generation is more in keeping with the hard realities of life, as very few BA (Oxford) and MA (Cantab) are available to fill up the vacancies in the Lok Sabha. I agree that any major change overnight in the outlook of the decision makers in a democracy is not possible. It has to be gradual and if the trend starts from the next general elections , perhaps the downward drift of the Indian society may come to an end.
If this does not happen, still progress will be there but in a raher slow pace.
