In Uganda, youth is a critical concern and a popular topic of debate. The Uganda National Bureau for Non-Governmental Organizations has 2154 recognized non-profit organizations (NGOs). As of July 4th, 2022, approximately 215 organizations registered out of 2154 deal with youth issues. Looking at the core youth space/center of talks, the youth continue to blame the government for their failures, and I would also want to point out that the youth have forgotten that they can also play a role in altering their life. What's going on over there?
The Centre for Monitoring Indian Economy (CMIE) recently released the unemployment status report of India for December 2021. According to the report, the unemployment rate in the country was 7.91% in December. It was 7% in November. The highest unemployment rates were reported in Haryana (34.1%), Rajasthan (24.1), Jharkhand (17.3%), Bihar (16%), and Jammu and Kashmir (15%).
On the other hand, states such as Karnataka (1.4%), Gujarat and Odisha (1.6%), Chhattisgarh (2.1%) reported the lowest unemployment rates in India. High unemployment rates can be attributed to a combination of delayed economic recovery, a surplus of labour, and a slow agricultural season.

Where I come from, the percentage of young people out of the total population is lower than in Uganda.
However, a part of this youth launches its arrows on the government (present and past) while the other part is not interested in everything and everyone.
