Arora: Gen Z Voters Support Issues Over Parties at Webinar

On August 2, 2026, Naresh Arora, a political strategist who has advised the Congress party and NCP, spoke at a Hindu-hosted webinar about Gen Z as India’s first political constituency defined by mindset rather than identity. He noted young voters support issues over parties and expect politics to be responsive like digital platforms. Referring to protests at Jantar Mantar, Arora said they reflected frustration with institutional failures seen as moral questions. He warned both government and opposition not to make simplistic conclusions from these movements, emphasizing the need for trust and fair rewards for hard work among young Indians.
