The Vice President of India Shri M. Hamid Ansari has said that the Globalisation has led to the emergence of aspiration, comparison, competition and dissatisfaction as drivers of change. People today have comparative yardsticks to assess their situation, the performance of their governments and societies, and to see what alternatives exist, or can be fashioned. They demand that they be given choices and chances in their social, economic and political lives so that they can actively determine their destinies. Addressing at the “61^st Annual Convocation of Panjab University” at Chandigarh , Shri Ansari has said the information and communications revolution and the proliferation of social media has led to the flow and control of information becoming unpredictable and non-linear, flowing in many directions at the same time.  As a result, change today is increasingly more disruptive, more difficult to manage, more complicated to harness for achieving desirable political and social outcomes. It is, nevertheless, far reaching.

 

Shri Ansari has said that as youth, they have the option of setting their own goals  without being pressured. They could choose to either conform or go against the flow of their peers. Yet remember Gandhiji’s dictum that the means matter as much as the ends. Achieving goals at any cost will impose unacceptable costs on them, their family, their community and the nation in the long run.
