    Google announced in 2009 that neither meta descriptions nor meta keywords factor into Google's ranking algorithms for web search. Google uses meta descriptions to return results when searchers use advanced search operators to match meta tag content, as well as to pull preview snippets on search result pages, but it's important to note that meta descriptions do not to influence Google's ranking algorithms for normal web search.

    Not at all, meta tags have lost their power in a big way on rankings over the past few years and, as a natural result, the number of websites using them has vastly diminished. It is no longer useful and discard as being dead in the water in terms of SEO benefits.

    I partially agree with your opinion and don't agree with some of your mentioned point. Google yes earlier used to consider Meta Keywords, but now it is not helping at any manner. But you can't say Meta Description is not helping to improve your website ranking, it does contributes to improve the website ranking.

    It also helps to increase the website traffic. Therefore it is said to write effective meta description.

    No, Meta keywords are not important in present scenario. It's only for our understanding and not effects the ranking.
