Town, Veershahar 18 September 2025 The Editor The National Times New Delhi **Subject: Rising concern over cyberbullying and the need for student awareness** Sir/Madam, Through the columns of your esteemed newspaper, I wish to express my deep concern regarding the alarming rise in cyberbullying cases among adolescents. Studies show that one in six school children experiences cyberbullying, leading to severe mental distress and a decline in self-esteem. It is crucial to create awareness among children about digital etiquette and self-defense. Schools must take the initiative by organizing mandatory workshops to educate students on identifying cyberbullying and teaching them strategies like blocking toxic users and reporting abuse on social media platforms. Simultaneously, parents play a vital role. They must establish open communication channels, allowing children to share their online experiences without the fear of getting their devices confiscated. Furthermore, both students and parents must be made aware of the national Anti-Bullying Helpline numbers, ensuring they know how to access professional help when needed. It is our collective responsibility to ensure that the internet remains a safe space for our youth. Yours sincerely, Tanmay |
