NEET Protests Reflect Deeper Youth Psychological Shifts

Lots of young people in India are protesting because they feel that their future is uncertain and that institutions are not listening to them.

These protests started because of a problem with the NEET exam, but they are about more than just that.

Young people are feeling anxious about things like climate change, jobs, and fairness.

When they see other people feeling the same way, they feel less alone and more powerful.

This makes them want to take action together.

Experts say that when young people feel like they can make a difference, they are more likely to join movements.

They also say that when institutions don't listen, young people feel like they have to protest to be heard.

In the future, young people might protest even more because of things like climate change and technology.
