According to Census 2011, around 11 per cent of the Indian population comes in the age bracket of 25-30. In Lok Sabha 2019, hardly 1.5 percent of MPs fall in this age group.

Even though the proportion of youth in the parliament has increased from the previous 8 per cent in 2014, it makes one wonder; why is there un...
