Vice President Radhakrishnan has issued a stark warning that the youth may end up following a 'cockroach' if positive news is consistently ignored. Speaking at an event, he emphasized the importance of highlighting constructive developments to guide young minds in the right direction.
Balancing Freedom of Expression
The Vice President clarified that he is not against freedom of expression, but he questioned the tendency to give disproportionate attention to issues that may not stand the test of time. He urged media and society to focus on stories that inspire and educate, rather than those that create unnecessary noise.
The Cockroach Analogy
Using the metaphor of a cockroach, Radhakrishnan warned that if society neglects positive news, the youth might gravitate towards trivial or harmful trends. He called for a collective effort to amplify good news and role models.
The event was attended by educators, students, and community leaders who echoed the need for a balanced narrative in public discourse. The Vice President's remarks come amid growing concerns over the impact of social media on youth behavior.
