MODERNIZATION – A NATION HAZARD...

“Modernization has come to mankind itself in several ways, Some say it’s good, some say it’s bad.”
Modernization refers to a model of programme transition from a pre-modern or traditional to a modern society. It looks at internal dynamics while referring to a social and cultural structures and adaptations of new technologies. Modernization seems to have main phases of its course at a certain point which carries institutions and values of the modern society. But beyond some points however modernization began to breed discontent on an increasing large scale. This is due to rising expectation provoked by early success and demands of people, Groups tend to make escalating demands which becomes very difficult to meet. India is one of the pioneers of modernization and will continue to be. It supplies its new resist technologies in countries like USA, Pakistan, Germany etc. but negative consequences of modernization are reaching height.
We invent a device for making our lives comfortable and then another to safeguard it and then another to safeguard the last one, and in this journey from good to better- better to best there is no full stop on inventions. It is not said that stop modernization and start caring for the nature, but if we cut seventeen fully grown trees for making a ton of paper, then we should plant 70 more trees there. Just imagine carrying heavy oxygen tanks on our backs will not be fun. We all know that a tree can reduce pollution created by a car driven for about 18,000 km. Modernization has affected our nation in fields of fishing, agriculture, food production and power management of power resources.
Coming to the topic of culture, Indian culture is always a salute as Indians have been caring for years.
 Points to change are accepted but not in cost of losing its heritage and its trait.
Listen – “To be modernize does not mean to be rich in wealth or status but it means to be rich is wisdom.”
