Authors

Abstract
The influence of Media on the psychological development of children is profound. With the advent of communication technology in recent times, a child’s exposure to different forms of Mass Media has been manifold. It is in these early years, when the child is likely prone to develop criminal behaviour. Media through its different platforms is creating so much influence especially in instilling violent thoughts in these young minds and desensitising which in turn have led to Juvenile Delinquent behaviour. It is thereby important to see the role of Mass Media as a contributing factor towards this delinquent behaviour. Modern form of Mass Media esp. the Internet in today’s times has brought a wind of change and creates the maximum impact in enhancing delinquent behaviour.
