Social change is a complex phenomenon, in which the
triad: Thesis,Anti-Thesis and Synthesis operate continuously. Technology and
Migration are the two important factors of many contributing factors that had a
profound impact on society. In the last decade (2000-2010) two important
societal changes took place in India are:
1 .
Multitude of child care centers
2.
Impact of Social Media
Migration of talented men and women from various parts
of the country to the growth poles has given working opportunities for both men
and women; this has led to increasing number of Both parents working leading to
further disintegration of nuclear families. Mother and father working in
different places, or working in same place made a way for multitude of child
care centers. No child care center is the substitute for the diffusive care of
the family. Aarushi case is one such instance of missing child care. Children
are the building blocks of a nation. So there is an urgent need to study this
phenomenon. There should be national guide lines for child care centers.
The virulence effect of social media on public as well
as policy makers has made no reaction time to think quiet on an issue. Parliament
The highest institution to make laws is in a state of perplexity. For instance
it has skipped fruitful discussion on genetically Modified crops (GM crops),
justice B.N srikrishna committee report on Telangana. Ordinances are becoming
order of the day. Social desirability is the idea that people in general will
form their opinions. If social media creates a false vision where the perceived
truth can actually be very far from the actual truth, the society lives in a
chaotic state. Supreme courts direction to Election commission to ban on
Opinion polls reflects the impact of social media that can change, modify
public opinion.
