Prosperity of any nation depends directly on the creativity of its artists and writer. You will remember in your history books, you will always come across the fact that during the golden periods of any empire there were more artists and writers supported by the kings and courts. I believe that the students of arts and literature will be critical and important contributors to taking India as a developed nation and sustaining it there. Creative entertainment and management are likely to be areas where the future society is going to spend enormous amount of time and money. The students of art and literature can find ample opportunities in this arena to good jobs. They can also act as a very effective interface between the people and the policy makers as well as between the people and the scientist and technologists.
