T.V. and its affects: Television is one of the latest and most effective vehicles of communication in India, though it was established in the West about six decades ago. Today we can witness events that occur across the globe through the television which beams it into our drawing rooms via the satellite. Television has made the world smaller. Not only does it bring us news from distant lands, it brings us pictures and images of these lands and their people. Television can however cause a great deal of harm. Young children lose interest in studies and prefer to sit glued to the television. Young minds often get influenced by the violence depicted on the small screen. A more dangerous occurrence is that children lose the habit of reading story books and along with it their power of imagination and sense of judgement. The most unfortunate aspect is that people buy a T.V. set not because they wish to benefit from it, but because T.V. has become a status symbol.
