Social Media can have a good impact on people but we look closer to the real impact of social
media, it is ruining the future of our youth by facebook, twitter, skype, whatsapp, orkut etc. and
the students are distracting from education. The main focus of youth should be on their studies
but unfortunately, they are emphasizing on such sites. It is totally a wastage of time. Now-a-
days, it has become an addiction to youth, students and even adults.
