Increasing mobile addiction due to online classes

 In today's world where even a child is using a mobile phone and that also even before learning to speak.Anyone of us can not yet imagine a world without our mobile phones. Technology in past few years have advanced to such an extent that to imagine a wireless world has not just remained a mere dream for homo-sapiens. The way our world is approaching technology  is so fast that you can not pin-point the moment in which you will enter into the future technological world leaving behind the present world.It should not surprise you if i say that- " Technology has replaced the importance of oxygen in the daily lives of this generation."


Imagine can you spend a day or two without any technology, living a natural life as any normal species other than us do?? I guess it is a perfect no for anyone reading this without any doubt. 

During this most difficult time of our lives that is the lockdown due to coronavirus pandemic on loose , mobile phones have become our source of entertainment in extreme boredom and acted as our living support. Many records have shown that the use of mobile phones in the year 2020 has increased to about 80-90% than the previous few years.Studies and surveys claims that prolonged usage of  mobile phones for unimportant purposes results not only in addiction to it but also causes many diseases.


You may have seen increasing use of specs and glasses in past few years which is a cure for weak eyesight caused from radiations and lights emitted by mobile phones .Many scientists have claimed that radiations emitted by mobile phones are injurious to health especially for children yet the mobile phone sales top the list every year .


This pandemic has forced us all to enter into the virtual world. Education system has been affected by it the most . Nowadays the only way to teach for teachers is through online classes . So students are also engaged in this process. 4-6 hours of exposure to the mobile screen for a person is good enough to affect his/her health. Online classes in a significant and major way has also increased the mobile addiction.


Mobile addiction has elevated its level since the beginning of online classes as both student and teachers are required to interact with each other through it only. And in the era in which mobile phones are known to divert the attention of students from studies, it has now  become one of the major source for studies too. Earlier you may have reason to prevent your child from using the mobile phone for late hours. But due to online studies your only way to prevent your child from mobile has been lost . 

The fact that mobile addiction prevailed even before this pandemic  cannot be ignored . But it is the bitter truth that online classes has forced many of us to fall in the so called world of mobile addiction.

Usage of mobile in today's date is indeed of utmost importance. Since technology has been developed by us for our use only. But excessive use of anything is harmful so do the technology.

Secularism vs communalism

Secularism and Communalism are the two different social ideologies. In simple words, the former one stands with the belief that religion should not influence or be involved in the organization of society, education, government, etc.   On the other hand,   the attempts to construct religious or ethnic identity, incite strife among people from different communities, and to stimulate communal violence between those groups, comes under the definition of communalism. The world has over 200 countries as a secular state, among which China, India, United States, Indonesia, Pakistan, Brazil, Bangladesh, Japan, Germany, United Kingdom, France, Italy, South Africa, South and North Korea, Iraq, Poland, Sri Lanka,  are the most popular ones. Even though Hindu nationalists did not participate in the Constituent Assembly to draft the country’s constitution, Hindu traditionalists were all present in the making of the constitution. There was a lot of pressure on Nehru and B. R. Ambed...

Which is more superior: Religion or humanity?

Religion and humanity have always been entwined with one another, laced in a beautiful yet cryptic mess with their relationship continuously being restructured by society. Both exist in the mind, soul and heart of every individual, weaving webs of connection across the globe and fusing together communities. Sometimes, it can be deemed as too difficult to isolate the two concepts of humanity and religion. Discovering where one concept ends and the other begins is considered confusing, thus bringing the question of ‘is religion or humanity more superior’ to light.                                            Courtesy : Forbes.com Only once you start to develop your understanding of the meaning behind the two notions of human interaction, do you begin to realise that humanity is far more superior to religion. Being the basis of society, humanity is the framework of how we, as humans,...
