The question of whether students should take part in politics is
a modern one. In the past, parents and teachers held absolute authority over
children, and politics was reserved for the wealthy. However, with the rise of
nationalism and mass movements in the early 20th century, young people were
called upon to join political causes. This led to a revolution in politics, as
the youth brought energy and strength to the table.
Today, there is nothing inherently wrong with students taking
part in politics. However, if the goal is to enter the legislature and shape the
nation's destiny, the youth must wait. Emotional outbursts and enthusiasm are
not enough to make a good politician. It takes maturity, wisdom, and foresight
to be an effective leader.
Therefore, it is better for students to wait until they have
gained the necessary knowledge, intelligence, and wisdom to shoulder the
responsibility. They must be dedicated to a mission and the people, not just
caught up in youthful enthusiasm. The danger of manipulating the power of the
youth for political gain is a real one, and it could have catastrophic
consequences.
In conclusion, students should be encouraged to study politics,
understand the manifestos of different parties, and engage in political
discourse. However, they should wait until they are fully equipped to handle the
responsibilities that come with political leadership before taking an active
role. |
