“His parents can’t speak, so their 5-year-old son became their voice”: How the little one is helping them grow their online business |

The story of Vanshpreet Singh (husband), Anmol Kaur (wife) and their five-year-old son Sukhmehar Singh is one such tale of hope, faith and self-respect. Mohali’s deaf and mute couple’s story reminds us that courage doesn’t always speak aloud, and…

Representative image‘Practising Digital Hygiene Can Reverse Effects’Representative image‘Practising Digital Hygiene Can Reverse Effects’Representative image12 NEW DELHI: It begins innocently. One short video while waiting for a cab. Another before dinner. A few more before sleeping. Somewhere between swipe and scroll, 40 minutes pass.Short-form videos are everywhere – on Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts and similar platforms. But a global review of nearly 98,000 people, published in Psychological Bulletin, suggests that heavy, compulsive use may be affecting how we focus and how we feel.The analysis combined 71 studies across countries and age groups, including teenagers and adults, with the average participant in their early twenties. It does not claim that short videos cause permanent harm. But it finds consistent links between heavier scrolling and weaker attention, poorer impulse control and higher stress and anxiety.In simple terms, the more compulsive the scrolling, the harder it may be to concentrate on slower tasks – reading, studying or finishing work without checking the phone. Researchers suggest when every swipe delivers something new, the brain begins to expect constant stimulation. When that pace slows, boredom may set in faster.Clinicians say the design of these platforms plays a role. Short bursts of novelty, colour and instant reward repeatedly activate the brain’s reward pathway, reinforcing the urge to keep watching. Most people can step away with conscious effort, but those predisposed to addictive or obsessive traits may find it harder to disengage, says Dr Paramjeet Singh, consultant psychiatrist at PSRI Hospital, who notes that excessive scrolling is increasingly showing up in clinics as fatigue, reduced focus and even strain in relationships.From a psychological standpoint, the concern is not dramatic harm but gradual shifts in how the brain responds to stimulation. Dr Jyoti Mishra, senior consultant – Psychology at Apollo Spectra Hospital, Delhi, says short-form videos are engineered around novelty and instant gratification. Compulsive watching can slowly erode attention span and impulse control. Prolonged exposure to fast, emotionally charged content keeps neural networks in a heightened state of alert, she explains, which may manifest as restlessness, poor concentration and anxiety, particularly in young adults. The good news, she adds, is that practising digital hygiene – limiting screen time, taking breaks and protecting sleep – can reverse many of these effects.The review found that addictive or hard-to-control use had stronger links with these effects than total screen time alone.Importantly, the research shows association, not proof of cause. People already struggling with attention or anxiety may be more drawn to fast-paced content. Still, when dozens of studies point in the same direction, the pattern deserves attention. The scroll is effortless. Sustained attention takes work. And that balance may be worth preserving.About the AuthorAnuja JaiswalAnuja Jaiswal is a Senior Assistant Editor at The Times of India, with an impressive 18-year career in narrative journalism.

Moreover, was it correct on the part of the five-judge bench to delineate the ratio, that is how many judges in the 7-J bench were in majority of the judgment? Once a judgment is rendered by a bench, irrespective of the division, it is considered as the view of the entire bench. So, was it a valid reference to a larger bench?”The matter was placed before a seven-judge bench, which had referred the issue to nine-judge bench in 2016.

The case had an interesting genesis. Bangalore Water Supply and Sewerage Board had fined two employees for misconduct and deducted the amount from their salary in 1972. They had filed a petition under the Industrial Disputes Act for recovery of the amount. The board said it is a statutory body providing basic amenities to citizens and cannot be categorised as industry. The Industrial Tribunal and HC, however, agreed with the employees. On appeal, the SC on Feb 21, 1978, defined “industry” expansively.

In 2020, Parliament enacted the Industrial Relation Code “to consolidate and amend the laws relating to trade unions, conditions of employment in industrial establishment or undertaking, investigation and settlement of industrial disputes and for matters concerned therewith or incidental thereto”.
