The type and nature of the problem each product can solve 4. The design and look of the product to make it more appealing and useable. 5. Whether the product may be able to change the habit or behavior of the person using it. 6. The probabilities and possibilities for further improvements.

Engineers, no doubt are contributing greatly to development by designing novel products for making the lives of the people easy and convenient, but, this in no way can overshadow the intellectual capabilities of youth from other stream of studies. Social sciences and humanities have an equally important role to play in nation building. For example- an engineer can invent a smart card or robot or an app for a smart phone using his technical mind, but, people from social sciences or humanities..

Continued:2. Only youth having a science background and a scientific temper or engineers can contribute towards the development of a nation. Scientific temper is construed and understood to be synonymous with having a degree in science stream. It should not be interpreted narrowly. Scientific temper having an innovative mind to provide plausible solutions for solving societal problems and improving the quality of life of the people.

In India, particularly, the problem with realizing the full potential of the youth is multi-fold and is based on some erroneous presumption which are described below: 1. Only those youth who are civil servants or qualify the prestigious civil services (IAS) examination with an all encompassing syllabus can become better policy planners and be the steel frames for strong nation building.

The youth in any part of the world are inquisitive, full of verve and are amenable. Their active and direct participation in the policy making and governance process is therefore a sine-qua-non for true development and full realization of democracy. Unfortunately, youth are often sidelined in the formal decision making process.

युवा शक्ति सर्व शक्ति है इस लिए युवाओं को मौका मिले तो बदलाव आ सकते हैं

शासकीय, अर्धशासकीय एवं शासकीय अनुदान से चल रही समस्त संस्थाओं में कार्यरत 25 वर्ष से अधिक सेवारत लोगों को यह विकल्प दिया जाये कि उनके बच्चों को योग्यतानुसार रोजगार देने पर उन्हें सेवानिवृत्त का अवसर दिया जाय। इससे युवावर्ग को देष के विकास में भागीदारी का अवसर मिलेगा साथ ही सेवानिवृत्त लोगों की पर्याप्त फिटनिस, उम्र, एवं अनुभव होने के साथ-साथ आर्थिक रूप से भी सम्पन्नता होने के कारण वे अन्य व्यवसाय या जाॅब करने में सक्षम रहेंगे। सेना के अधि./कर्म. पुनस्र्थापन के लिए उदाहरण भी हैं।

I think we should put every thing on hold for now but to fully concentrate on our defense. We should upgrade our technological infrastructure to support our soldiers. Personally, I can be without electricity and water for another 5 years. Don't want good roads or even clean Gangaji till the time my fellow citizen and soldiers are loosing their lives daily in the hands of terrorists/naxalites. Urgently need to do something. Please......

Yesterday 14 soldiers died and today 8 soldiers and in future also many more will die... :-( Why aren't we using drone cameras to find the terorists and save atleast one or two valuable soldiers life :-(

The key is transparency. The youth needs to feel the whole system is merit based. Rigth now as a youth there is no clarity as to how people progres in politics, the popular opinion is by being a bootlicker and some acts of hooliganism that gets you on the party radar. What needs to be done is having public debates, group discussions, community task and there the participant can display their intelllectual acumen, they drive for working for the society and their ability to work with a team.
