India’s below-25 population “is going to act as a secret weapon in the future,” according to a report in the Hindu.
More than 60% of Indian population is currently in their 20s. This is one of the major factors that will shape the future of India in the years to come. The young Indian population is not only young, but has tremendous entrepreneurial spirit.
The logic is simple. Fast population growth equals more young people, and more young people equals a more dynamic work force.
India produces 2.5 million IT, engineering and life sciences graduates a year, besides about 650,000 post graduates in science and IT related subjects.
The government says 402 million Indians are aged between 15 and 59 — the working age — and that this number will grow to 820 million by 2020. With an average age of 26, India is undoubtedly a younger country than China, will have the largest workforce in the world by 2020.
“But the numbers in themselves do not automatically translate into capacity,”
It is in our hands to turn the numbers into infinite capacity. You are only one, but still you are one. You cant do everything but still you can do something. A little thing may bring the revolution. So START NOW. . .
First question yourself . .
What is your part in developing your nation ?
What do you want INDIA to be in next generation ?

My India
62 years of Independence . .
Development everyday. . In all fields,
In Organization,
In Technology,
In Education,
In Information,
In Knowledge Resources,
In Productive skills.
Also . .
5,000 year old ancient civilization
325 languages spoken – 1,652 dialects
18 official languages
29 states, 5 union territories
Worlds 4th largest economy.
Largest English speaking nation in the world.
3rd largest standing army force, over 1.5Million strong.
2nd largest pool of scientists and engineers in the World.
Worlds largest democracy.
India is among the 3 countries in the World that have built Supercomputers on their own. The other two countries being USA and Japan.
India is among six countries that launch satellites and do so even for Germany, Belgium, South Korea, Singapore and EU countries.
Statistics show:
38% of doctors in the USA,
12% of scientists in the USA,
36% of NASA scientists,
34% of Microsoft employees,
28% of IBM employees,
17% of INTEL scientists,
13% of XEROX employees,
… are Indians.
But Still our nation lacks something.
Do u know,
80% of India does not have access to public health facilities. (Dr. Anbumani Ramadoss, Minister for Health and Family Welfare)
47% of Indian children under the age of 5 years are undernourished. (Human Development Report 2005, UNDP)
71% of the children in 15-19 age group have not completed a secondary education, their fundamental right. (National Sample Survey on Education, 1999-00, NSSO)

70% of India does not have access to a suitable toilet. (National Sample Survey on Housing, 2004, NSSO)
49% of India does not have proper shelter.(National Sample Survey on Housing, 2004, NSSO)
38% of India does not have access to a nearby water source. (National Family Health Survey, 1998-99, IIPS)
37.7% of Indian households do not have access to a nearby water source,
49% do not have a proper shelter,
69.5% do not have access to suitable toilets,
85.2% of Indian villages do not have a secondary school and
43% of Indian villages do not have an all-weather road connecting them.
73 million working children are less than 10 years old.
While buffaloes may cost up to 15,000 rupees , children are sold at prices between 500 and 2,000 rupees.
47 out of 100 children in India enrolled in class I reach class VIII, putting the dropout rate at 52.79%.
Approximately 16.64% of villages in the country do not have facilities for primary schooling. (UNICEF)
42 million children in the age-group 6-14 years do not attend school in India.
Every year, 12 million girls are born, 1.5, billion die before their first birthday, another 8,50000 before their fifth birthday and only 9 million are alive at the age of 15.
Almost 7 crore out of 10.7 crore girls in India live below the poverty line.
Girls constitute more than half of the illiterate children in the age group of 5-9 years and 65% in the 10 –1 4 age group.
But we have,
2765 Models of TV
183 types of Washing Machines
233 Kinds of Refrigerators
74 models of cars,
Over 250 satellite and cable channels
Where the country going on??
How is our country going to achieve the crown before 2020?
What is your part in developing the nation ? ?
Don’t be overwhelmed
Find your small part
Do it
Educate others
Do your part
Love our nation
Read Ignited Minds, The Great Indian dream
Fight illiteracy
Health
Join the Civil service, Judiciary
Start Business in rural areas
A true patriot today is the man who hates India in its present plight and does something about it and not the man who proclaims that India is the greatest nation and does nothing to relieve its misery.
Do whatever you can.. However small it may be.. A small thing can bring out the revolution.
