If one day the food-processor stops working, the houselady raises a lot of hue and cry. If we disconnect TV for a day, children will leave home and indulge in playing and not return home even for food.
You can live without food and water for a day but you cannot live without mobile phone, TV, mixer grinder, microwave, fans, A.C. and so on. The list of modern gadgets is inexhaustible. They have become part and parcel of our life. Life comes to a stand still without them.
Now mobile phones are seen in the hands of almost everyone. Can anyone live again the same old life when there were no mobiles ? The obvious answer will be 'no'.
We are wone to lead luxurious life, physical toil and extertion on our part cannot be expected.
We will be deprived of all the news, the latest score of India and Australia match, the latest price-index, the latest BSE index which are all available at the flick of a button.
To-day their effectiveness and dependence of man cannot be ignored.
The industry and factory will be closed. The procession of protest will be seen on every road and street of the city. The employment will be turned into mass unemployment. The youth will shout slogan without mike, the old and children will repeat them. The life on earth will be transferred to Mars and there will be no aeroplanes and helicopters to fly on to Mars.
