Telecommunication Challenges in India: Social Mental Health Perspective 2018
Abstract:
Telecommunication in India has revolutionised the process of living through disruption and then distraction and at certain times distortion. Individual consumerism has led to social and group behavioural changes. So much so that social mental health indicators need to be checked. Cell phone has become an extended organ for humans around. From faith -belief-values frame to technology driven frame of ecology and economics a paradigm shifts and shuffle is being observed. How and why of this needs to be focussed and addressed for better possible outcomes through telecommunication events.
