A Maharashtra village switches off TV and internet for a few hours daily - and the results are worth it.
By Imran QureshiA village in India's Maharashtra state has declared "independence" from two modern-day addictions - television and mobile internet. At least, for a couple of hours every day.
The two instruments of "addiction" can be switched on when the village council sounds the siren again at 8.30pm. "But they returned [from class] to either play on their mobile phones or sit and watch television," he said, adding that many adults were also spending too much time on their devices and not talking to each other.
"Since this new norm began, it is far easier for my husband to return home from work and help them study and I can peacefully do my work in the kitchen," she added.But it was not easy for the village council to get everyone to agree with the idea of a digital detox.
