Meeting Topic Digital Distraction
Meeting Agenda It is not uncommon to see young men and women walking on the road with their heads glued to the smartphone screen. They are perhaps partially aware of the surroundings and are prone to meet with an accident. At airports, railway stations, restaurants, and, for that matter, in any public place, people prefer to interact and communicate over digital media instead of interacting and conversing physically with others. The current excessive use of digital devices, especially Smartphones, on social media is becoming an addiction to the younger generation, including school-going children, college students, and working people. It may not be an exaggeration to call "Digital Interaction" an opiate that is leading the affected persons to behave like drug addicts. It is worrisome because the affected younger generation is the country's future. We signed up for social media to keep in contact and exchange personal, social, and professional views and news with friends, relatives, the community, etc.  Why has it become an addiction?  What is the extent of this addiction?  What leads to it?   Is it a natural progr ession, or is it engineered? The session will address the above issues.

Minutes of Meeting Digital Addiction The RCPC members were given an insightful talk on “Digital Addiction” and its repercussions on the lives of most people today Rtn. Dr. Ramesh Sachdeva articulately explained the nuances of the dependability of the people on digital gadgets with examples. He explained how we have metamorphosed into this condition which has serious side effects and urged everyone to make a conscious effort to detox from this habit. He stressed on Digital minimalism and starkly quoted that this addiction was nothing less than opium dependency. The audience was forced to introspect when one of the titles read “should we be worried about it?” He answered in the affirmative and urged us to make a conscious effort in moving towards a practical approach towards the digital usage Messages of Appreciation from RCPC Members • Last evening, Rtn Ramesh delivered very interesting talk, and the way he speaks you don't miss a word, thank you very much, Ramesh ?????- Rtn Oni Kakajiwala • ?I recognised myself a few times.
