'Salutations to Swami Vivekananda, whose birthday we celebrate today as National Youth Day -- a monk who preached nation first before all else.' That tweet, from Kumara Guru, was one of many commemorating a day supposedly set aside for India's youth. Kiran Kumar S tweeted: 'On National Youth Day, let's accept one thing: Even at the age of 150, some are real youth, with or without media hype.' Hemant Mittal had this suggestion: 'The day should be celebrated with Bryan Adams singing 18 Till I Die.' And this, from Rahul Bhagchandani: 'National Youth Day is the one day everybody should have the liberty to wake up post-noon.'Flashback
