Find Out How Damage Prone Social Media Platforms Can Exist In A Framework Of Democracy

Pooja YadavApril 11, 20220

Social media platforms have efficiently and effectively supplanted traditional information networks in India. The dialectical relationship between online content, traditional media and political networks means the messages propagated online effectively touch even people who don't seem to be digitally literate.

Countries closed borders and therefore the movement of individuals came to a standstill. Demand for exports, especially for the products the Democratic Socialist Republic of Sri Lanka sold, also fell. Even remittanc...
