A paradigm shift is taking place in political section and the political culture is witnessing unimaginable transformation due to active social media. The basic reason of this change is increasing awareness and expectations of public. The traditional political methods and approaches have become obsolete. The new class of political activists is emerging where younger generation is more determined and has political skills which are being acquired from various professional institutes.
This change has further generated a wave of change in the sociopolitical sector. Today's young leaders need to be qualified on matters like rural development, women empowerment, skill development, watershed management, environmental science and other emerging topics which used to be hardly addressed by the unique class of traditional leaders.
The new generation of leaders have to follow the style of adaptive leadership where people have to be approached by a leader rather than the public is approaching to a leader. The top to bottom approach has no significance in the contemporary world rather bottom up approach is much more beneficial and appreciable too. The leader need to interact with people at on initiative and find solutions to their problems. The emerging world order has further brought a unique change that political activists are no longer die hard followers and they are opportunists and looking forward to change sides if the personal political aspirations are met.
The profession of politics has become more complex and critical too. Certain parties do propagate for not supporting own kith and kin but the things happen on ground amazingly. The politics is a noble profession as education but we need to understand the meaning of politics. It does not mean that you do not do social service while being politically active. In fact, politics is a social work provided one has not got any financial burden and can perform whole heartily.
