From the Editor's Desk
Media is more than just a reflection of society—it is a force that shapes narratives,
influences perceptions, and drives change. In today’s rapidly evolving digital
scenario, the role of media in addressing global challenges, amplifying voices, and
fostering inclusivity has become more significant than ever.
This initiative is driven by the conviction that emerging and young researchers are
not merely listeners to the scholarly discourse-they are part of the collective
spearheading new ideas, and catalyfying between collaboration. Abstracts reflect
the passion and commitment that is found within them towards engaging with
society's most pressing issues today.
We are really gracious to Kalinda Prakashan, Suno Sharda, Sharda TV, Sharda
News, and Sharda Samachar for their kind and positive cooperation in this
colloquium and publication. The contribution has cemented to bring the
knowledge-in-innovation platform that it will be.
May these pages inspire and acquire new insights and renewed commitments to
harnessing media in shaping a better and more informed society.
