Nurturing Aspirations: Dr. Jaishankar's Advice to Indian Youth on Leadership and Political Vision

During a recent diplomatic visit to Thailand, Dr. S. Jaishankar, a distinguished former Indian Foreign Service officer, had a heartwarming interaction with the Indian Community in Bangkok. A young participant expressed her ambition to become a Member of Parliament and even dreamt of one day becoming the Prime Minister of India. In response, Dr. Jaishankar, though not a seasoned politician himself, graciously acknowledged his accidental entry into the world of politics, yet praised the youth for displaying interest and aptitude at such a young age.
The experienced diplomat offered valuable insights, suggesting that the pursuit of societal change and leadership need not be confined to traditional political paths alone. He pointed out that today, influential and impactful leaders emerge from diverse fields beyond the realm of politics. Dr. Jaishankar encouraged the young aspirant to explore her passions and excel in any chosen domain.
Although he humbly admitted that he may not be the ideal guide for political matters, he refused to dampen the young girl's spirits and dreams. Instead, he left her with a profound thought to ponder upon, emphasizing that the journey to leadership and societal transformation is open to those who dare to think beyond conventional boundaries.
Dr. Jaishankar's speech resonated deeply with the audience, inspiring the young generation to aim high, work diligently, and become agents of positive change in their unique ways. His words sparked hope and encouragement among the Indian diaspora in Thailand, motivating them to embrace their potential and contribute meaningfully to society and their homeland.
