Look
back a few years ago, when few people
would have either heard of or used multiple electronic gadgets such as
different versions of mobile like 3G,
tablets, pen drives, laptops, LCD, and Internet, they remained glued to merely
television, listening to transistors, reading newspapers and magazines. The
life was smooth sailing and relaxed. Children were used to reading,playing outdoor
games and wielding pen to write something.
How a different way of life style it was!
Now, in
the last couple of decades, things have changed a lot. With increasing
innovations of Science and Technology day by day, we have been more inversely affected than good. 3G mobile
has tugged to everyone’s palm, tablets have replaced books, keyboard
–pen, laptops-schoolbags, Internet on LCD –television and video games-outdoor fun
etc. which prove to be harmful for health and studies. It is a time waste with
no friends, no time for parents, home and relatives. We have submitted
ourselves to Machine life. SMS language has made us oblivious to pen down
anything. Our writing skills are snubbed. Books are found dust coated. Children
are bespectacled, Obese and prone to many
ailments like B/P, cardiovascular diseases and Diabetes etc.
Moreover,
it has an adverse impact on their moral
values. They have no values for school.
Teachers,parents,elders and opposite gender. It has polluted their minds with
evils and arrogance. Their attitude is a great matter of concern.
The
innovation of Science and Technology is also vested in warfare's like -the
misuse of nuclear and biological weapons. However,it also promotes remedies to diseases.
How irony it is! The number of population is increasing and people are being
replaced by robots! It has increased war and worry but also trying to lessen it
by nanobots!
Just
imagine! where it has dragged us.
Nonetheless,
its significance can’t be ignored. It
all depends upon us how we regard it. If we make use of it judiciously in need of expedite communication, updation of
knowledgeor information or any defence, it is acceptable.As soon as it is taken
up as a device of offence,it will become a curse. Unfortunately, its use seems
impossible. It is mostly misused.
