Aarya had always been a mediocre student. Luckily, after finishing her undergraduate degree from a tier-two engineering college, she secured a decent but modestly paying job at a reputable IT company.
However, after a year on the job, Aarya found her role mundane. When her best friend at the company, Shruti, left to pursue an MBA from a top-tier business school, citing significant career growth and potential salary increase upon graduation, Aarya felt intrigued and inspired to follow the same path. Shruti appreciated Aarya’s aspirations, telling her that doing an MBA from a top-tier business school could not only land Aarya a lucrative job but also it could fast-track her career progression. However, Aarya was concerned whether she would be able to balance between her MBA entrance exam preparation and her current job. Aarya considered resigning to focus entirely on MBA entrance exam preparation, but Shruti cautioned her that top-tier business schools might view a career break unfavourably, as they prefer continuous professional engagement.- XAT - 2025

The prisoners in the concentration camps in World War-II had lost faith in the future. Being in the camp, I felt disgusted with the state of affairs and I forced my thoughts to turn to another subject. ”Suddenly, I saw myself standing on the platform of a well-lit, warm and pleasant lecture room. In front of me, the attentive audience were seated in comfortable upholstered seats. I saw myself giving a lecture on hope, optimism, and resilience under difficult circumstances.” Suddenly, all that oppressed me stopped giving me pain and distress. This practice was so impactful that I could succeed in rising above the situation and the sufferings of the moment.”

Just as individuals compare themselves with others in terms of similarities and differences with respect to what they have and what others have, individuals also compare the group they belong to with groups of which they are not a member. It has been found that groups are more likely to take extreme decisions than individuals alone. Suppose there is an employee who has been caught taking a bribe or engaging in some other unethical act. His/her colleagues are asked to decide what punishment he/she should be given. They may let him/her go scot-free or decide to terminate his/her services instead of imposing a punishment which may commensurate with the unethical act he/she had engaged in. Whatever the initial position in the group, this position becomes much stronger as a result of discussions and interaction in the group.

- Social impact of social media
The social impact of social media is by far the biggest, as social media work through the formation of social networks by users in a virtual world. Its most significant impact is the formation of networks which span space and time and leads to the free-flowing of cultures and formation of new cultures which impacts the world. It has impacted how people consume information, how the consumption of media has gone from public to private and personal. However, on the flip side, social media work on algorithms. The information a user gets through social media is determined by the user preferences, which is self-declared by the user and detected by the algorithm. Hence, if one is an environmentalist, then one will get news and user-generated content on environmental activism. This selective exposure of information is harmful to the user as the user is not able to get alternate perspectives, for example, the trade-off between development and the environment. In politics, this can lead to things like political polarization, being associated with a political party or ideology which is detrimental to democracy. This is also what is called the ”echo chamber” effect. Meanwhile, research has also shown evidence that social media use leads to the persuasion of political beliefs, i.e., individuals who use social media were more likely to have their political beliefs persuaded than those who did not.- CUET (UG) - 2025

- Community Engagement on the Internet for Social Change
The arena of community media has become much broader with the addition of the Internet. The medium is a great source to increase outreach through converging technology and trans- forming the content into a ’multimedia’ format. We find fine instances of civil society and non-governmental organizations leading community-based newspapers and participatory video practices going for their online editions. For example, the newspaper Khabar Lahariya is pub- lished by the rural communities of Bundelkhand. This newspaper is also published on a portal in a multimedia format, including YouTube videos. This is being widely appreciated for being an ’alternative voice,’ sensitizing, and mainstreaming the people. All of Khabar Lahariya’s reporters are women who draw from their own experiences to share stories often ignored by the mainstream media. Similarly, with the local engagement of children in the age group of 15-18 years from marginalized tribal communities of northern Chhattisgarh, a UNICEF initiative - Sangwari Khabariya uses the medium of participatory videos to bring about social change in society. These children run their YouTube channel to post short news stories.- CUET (UG) - 2025
