SOCIAL MEDIA, VIRTUAL IDENTITY, AND CONTEMPORARY MENTAL HEALTH CHALLENGES
Author: Navneet Kaur

ABSTRACT
In the hyper-connected digital age, social media platforms have redefined how individuals engage with the world and each other. While these platforms have democratized expression and expanded access to information, they have also introduced new psychological risks and reshaped the contours of mental well-being. This paper presents a theoretical exploration of the complex relationship between social media and mental health, with particular reference to India’s sociocultural landscape and legislative responses. Drawing on psychological theory, media studies, and legal frameworks—especially the Mental Healthcare Act, 2017—this paper examines how virtual identities, algorithmic reinforcement, digital validation, and cyberbullying contribute to mental distress. It also investigates how Indian laws address or fail to address these evolving challenges, advocating for a synthesis of technological
regulation, digital literacy, and mental health reform.

MEMORY, TRAUMA, AND FRAGMENTED IDENTITY IN POSTCOLONIAL ENGLISH FICTION: A CRITICAL STUDY
Author: Kumar Harsh

ABSTRACT
Postcolonial English fiction has consistently engaged with the psychological, cultural, and historical consequences of colonial domination. Among its most significant concerns are memory, trauma, and fragmented identity, because colonialism did not merely occupy territories but also unsettled histories, languages, communities, and subjectivities. This paper critically examines how postcolonial English fiction represents the fractured self through the narrative reconstruction of personal and collective memory. It argues that memory in postcolonial fiction functions not only as recollection but also as resistance against colonial erasure, while trauma emerges as a historical wound that disturbs linear narration and stable identity. Through selected references to writers such as Chinua Achebe, Salman Rushdie, Jean Rhys, Toni Morrison, J. M. Coetzee, Michael Ondaatje, and Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, the paper explores how postcolonial narratives use disrupted chronology, polyphonic voices, intergenerational memory, silence, and linguistic hybridity to represent damaged but resilient identities. The study concludes that fragmented identity in postcolonial fiction is not simply a sign of loss; it is also a mode of cultural negotiation, ethical remembrance, and historical re-articulation.

Keywords: Postcolonial fiction, memory, trauma, fragmented identity, colonialism,
hybridity, history, displacement, narrative.
