Our parents and teachers were always after us to read. Be it any comics of our time like Champak, Nandan, Reader\u2019s Digest, and many more magazines and novels.

Today the scenario has completely changed. As we wake up, mobile phone is the first thing we check for Whatsapp messages and our fingers start texting, and when the same thing our child does we start saying, \u201cLO UTHTE HEE PHONE PE CHALOO HO GAYA\u201d.
