Decades ago social networking meant Gossips and discussion at Village choupals , Mela's and Fairs. People came together , discussed , gossiped and went away. All the consultations and planning were held there but now with the advent of modern technology and increasing awareness the mode of discussions have faced a drastic change.Initially it was difficult to bring your ideas amongst 200 people but now an average person has around 300 friends on its social networking website i.e Facebook and it is really interesting to know that to bring a simple idea among 300 of them just ...update your status and you will get all the approvals and disapproval within a span of 24 hours.
Nothing have changed in these years..only the way to communicate has changed.The barriers to express your opinions to large audience has reduced significantly.People now have a proper platform to express themselves , to raise their voice against anti social issues and to get themselves heard. They are just a click away from various social , economical and political discussions.They can discuss openly everything which signifies their Freedom which is their birth right.
Social networking is an e-platform where everyone has right to discuss and express their views.On this platform, if someone comes across something that is unproven or against facts , then they have the freedom to deny it or reject it by counter analysis.
Pity on our government who is in favor of restricting these world famous media.What could be a better platform to hear the voice of its own people? Rather I must say that India, the world's largest democracy ,should feel empowered with these public platforms.The Government should utilize this media to know the opinions of its very own public. It should focus more and more to run their campaigns , to know the public opinions on them and to do the necessary amendments desired by the public.
Every coin has two faces and same is with social media. But the strategy should be to focus on the positive points rather than empowering the negative points. Banning is not a solution to everything. Once the government can restrict the social media sites but "CAN THEY RESTRICT THE VOICE OF AN "AAM AADMI" ??

It should not be but it is a nightmare for Government. Frankly speaking, government is scared of social media these days; any irregularity on their part cannot remain concealed for longer duration and just one message spreads like forest-fire. Social media coupled with Media are becoming a headache for the Government. A few years back Government never imagined the role of social media in future would be so devastating. All scams which have been unearthed have reached to almost every person in the country and the outside in no time is only due to the activism in social media arena. Let's keep it up.
