Television is a source from where we can gain knowledge, pleasure and information about the whole world. About 45 years ago, TV was considered a magic of science, but now we can question is it a curse or a blessing for the youngsters? Television is considered to be the most effective means of educating the students. At the same time, it has become the most popular means of recreation. Some TV programmes are really attractive and exclusive. We must say that television is benefiting our youngsters by educating them and giving them recreational facilities. But some of the programmes are detrimental to them, destructive to our society and threatening our values, traditions and religious beliefs. The young generation is indulging in the bad practices they have acquired from the TV channels. They are leaning to adore western values and lifestyles instead of their own values and heritage. We can see the ill effects of western culture on our language, literature, and social relationship. We have to teach our youths our own values, so that they would watch western programmes, but will not be guided by the other culture.
