On this Special Report, Sonal Mehrotra Kapoor examines a heart-wrenching tragedy in Ghaziabad where three sisters, aged 12, 14, and 16, allegedly jumped to their deaths from the ninth floor of their apartment. The incident was reportedly triggered after their parents confiscated their mobile phones due to an obsession with Korean culture and internet content. Sonal Mehrotra Kapoor notes, ‘This is not just a family tragedy, this is a chilling warning. A warning about internet addiction, about digital obsession, quietly hijacking young minds.’ The program highlights a growing crisis across India, citing similar cases in Bhopal and Lucknow. Featuring insights from expert Aparajita Bharti, the report discusses the medical nature of screen addiction and the need for professional intervention rather than ‘cold turkey’ measures. Data presented shows that 22% of children spend over six hours daily online, underscoring the scale of digital engagement consuming young minds today.
