Prayagraj, July 26 : Justice Siddharth of the Allahabad High Court recently made observations about the impact of Western culture and social media on the youth of India. According to the judge, young people in the country are influenced by social media, movies, TV serials, and web series, leading them to pursue free relationships with members of the opposite sex. However, in this pursuit, they often fail to find a "real soulmate" and end up in the company of the wrong person.
The judge expressed concern that social media, movies, and other forms of entertainment portray multiple affairs and infidelity as normal, leading impressionable minds to experiment with such relationships. He highlighted that these actions go against the prevailing societal norms, and the youth struggle to discern the correct course of their lives due to these influences.
This observation comes in the context of a broader discussion about the impact of modern media and culture on the values and choices of the younger generation in India.
The Allahabad High Court made these observations while granting bail to an accused who was booked for allegedly abetting the suicide of a girl with whom he had a love affair. According to the Court, the elements of the offense of abetment of suicide (Section 306 IPC) did not seem to be established against the applicant.
