The youth do not believe “ India is their irrefutable homeland, and will be more than happy to live elsewhere.”
The survey conclusions were summed up by the newspaper on its Front page , “ An overwhelming percentage , about three-fourths say they find this country at best “ acceptable.” Most of them rate it poor on gender equality , employment opportunity, educational opportunity and freedom enjoyed by the youth .”
According to this survey, it’s not just the national sentiment has weakened ; the concept of true , everlasting love has also taken a big beating . Just about a fifth of men and women think their current relationship will go the distance ; more than half think it will not.”
The survey has observed that , “ optimism is not running high .A high percentage of men and a higher percentage of wmen-62.8 %and 66.1%, respectively – have no hope that something good is going to happen to this country soon.” They want a superman as Prime Minister to set things right.
