Abstract

The mobile Internet has become one of the most important technologies in the last decade. It has become a decisive force for socio political participation throughout the world. The communication technology has helped to change the world into a proverbial ‘global village’. There is a paradigm shift in utilizing the communication technology among people especially youth as they are becoming more and more active participants in the process of communication rather than being passive audience of mass media messages. The present paper includes the results of a research carried out to analyze the accessibility, usage patterns and socio political implications of Mobile phones and Internet among youth in District Anantnag of J&K state. The paper illustrates the changing patterns of political participation and extent of media penetration in the lives of people more specifically among youth of Anantnag.
