Gen Z thinks differently, but ‘that doesn’t make them wrong’: Ex-Army chief MM Naravane
MM Naravane said young people do not intend to harm the country and believe that their actions are aimed at bringing about positive change.
Retired Army Chief General Manoj Mukund Naravane urged people to understand and engage with the younger generation, known as Gen Z, rather than dismissing their views. He emphasized that while Gen Z may have a different perspective, it does not make them wrong. Naravane explained that each generation evolves differently, and the current generation of young people has changed their approach to various aspects of life, such as car ownership.
He highlighted that this does not make them a bad person; it simply reflects the evolution of society.
Naravane further clarified that Gen Z's actions are driven by a desire to bring about positive change, not harm to the country. He stressed that it is important to comprehend their motivations rather than simply scolding them, as they are our own children. He also addressed the recent viral video where a woman criticized soldiers at the Minimarg checkpoint in Kargil, Ladakh. Naravane defended the soldiers, emphasizing that disrespecting them is wrong and that their sacrifices must be respected.
