Though discussing about sex in India is a taboo thing still it’s a very curious phenomenon for people of every age group. In India it was very difficult for everyone to access information before1995 but post
1995 era opened the door for everyone to access the indispensible informationvia internet. Entering fourth generation of broadband cellular network technology paved the way for people and made it
easier to access any information within seconds. Now approximately 688 million Indian people have been using internet till January 2020 (Diwanj, 2020). Looking at the social media we found that Facebook
is the most popular social platform for Indians which is followed by Instagram and the majority of users on these sites are usually 18-24 years old youngsters (Dadhwal, 2016; Diwanji, 2020). The key concern of the day is the content preferred by this age group people. A survey indicated that India has become the hub of pornography and almost 30%-70% web browsing are just related to pornographic sites (Mohammad, 2016; Ghosh, 2020). Involvement of young teenagers on social media speculates that it has become the most powerful
weapon of self expression for them. This age group mostly preferred posts related to love and romantic relationship, communal hatred, political views and entertainment but the dark side of using these
platforms are being the part of predicaments unknowingly.
