Technology has completely revolutionized present era in every aspect of life

especially dealing with society. Technology has transformed the methods of
education, communication, business, art and literature, and has resulted in the
enhancement in the core spheres of lifeDue to blessings of science and technology
we are now able to check the advancement of every department working around
our society with a single click of internet. It is technology which helps us to
differentiate about the development process of all sections of society and help us to
maintain the development process. Technology has brought our society close to
each other where we can take any initiative about any social issue or discuss any
matter of concern regarding the society by sitting in our homes like using video or
audio conferencing. This paper will elucidate all over development process of our
society under the shades of science and technology.

Introduction:
As a whole science and technology is having a great impact on society. The
incorporation of such blessings in society is having a great influence on social
interaction. It is apparent from the existing knowledge that new technologies brunt
on the social communication within households in many different ways.
 Technology has bought the new methods of communication which made us
easy to identify and interact with someone who is known or unknown on universal
level.
 Science and technology is playing a role of bridge for the rural upliftment
and social development.
It is technology which transformed the human race from Stone Age to modern
industrial age. Science and technology not only influenced our communication
method but also enlightened our rural economy by its modern agricultural
methods.
 Modern technology and scientific tools enhanced the economic growth of
the country and made every impossible work an easy task to handle.
 It is technology which impacts globally the social life and provides
opportunities for every social person to become conscious about society and to
achieve societal goals.
 The word technology is combination of two words “Techno and Logy”
(Techno) means art, application or skill and (Logy) means science and
learning. It means technology is the way of methods and tools that a society
has created in order to make possible solutions of present problems and to
provide essential demands for the community.

 Nowadays relationship has become too much dominated by the use of

modern technology like social media, which reduced the distance and brought the
society close to each other.
 Technology is recognized as the indicator of social and cultural awareness
because it has improved the quality of life and developed the cultural assets in the
community.
 Science and technology has a great impact on education system of society.
As we know education is the important area of life, the modern technological
methods made our education system not only good but also provide us knowledge
of unknown facts which were beyond the imagination of human mind

 [1] Science and technology has a great impact on labour industry, in the
past labours had to suffer too much in performing any task but due to the use of
technology labours earn more in shorter period of time and by easy methods which
led the positive impact in their lives.
 Technology has brought a revolution in every aspect of social life; machines
are working instead of humans who have a great tendency to perform tasks with
accuracy and performance.
 It is technology which is used to identify any kind of problem in the human
body and not only to identify but also are these problems cured with proper
treatment.
 All human activities are influenced by technology like transportation,
housing, nutrition, work, leisure, even art and imagination. Science and
Technology is seen as organized search for truth and objective knowledge, because
science tells us the reality behind any process and also aware us about the improper
use of any substance which is dangerous for human life. So, it affects directly our
social life. Technology helps us to use modern skills and modern equipments to
perform any task within less time and with proper results. if we look towards our
daily lives we use technology at every point of time the blessings like T.V, radio,
computer, washing machines, microwave ovens, ATM, trains, airplanes, cars,

mobiles, etc are all means of technology. So, our social life is totally dependent on
science and technology
 India is the 2nd most populous country in world after china which is a big
challenge for the society to overcome from such issues. To neutralize such issues
science and technology is the main blessings to fulfill the needs of people and to
make healthy environment for social beings. In India more than 70% of the
population resides in the rural areas, inputs of science and technology in
agriculture, irrigation, water management, education, health, energy, industry,
transport, communications, employment generation, housing, etc. are crucial. The
size of the land holdings is very small and becoming smaller with increase in
population; technological inputs are therefore, essential, to increase productivity
and economic viability.

Impact of science and technology on education:

ONLINE CLASSES

 Development of society is recognized by the development in the field of

education. Science and technology has brought revolution in the education
system and opened the new era of education where you can learn each and
every thing by the modern techniques.
 The present education system reflects a system of standards from the past.
Technology is being used by students on daily basis such as web surfing,
texting, email, etc.
 By the use of modern technology students can listen and watch best lectures
on audio and video conferencing.
 In modern time education system is blind without the use of internet because
internet helps us to make the education more purposeful and more
interesting. Students can download the research articles, books, journals,
Magazines and can check the status of their research articles, their
application forms, their results, etc. in modern time technology has made our
education system open and our knowledge is based on real facts.

  Science helps us to discover new techniques which bring the modernization
in education system and students use these techniques and technologies to
work fast and with accuracy. Technology helps us to calculate faster than
human mind. It is also used by students to magnify the small objects which
we cannot see with the human eye during any experiment process.
 Finally we can say that modern science and technology is the back boon of
education system and also government should facilitate each and every
institute with such modern techniques to make the education system more
rational and verifiable.

Impact of science and technology on agriculture:

Modern methods of agriculture

 India is an agricultural country in which 72% of population belongs from

rural India whose main occupation is agriculture.
 Science and technology has a great impact on agricultural sector. it has a
significant impact like irrigation systems, tractors, water pumps, electricity
,best quality seeds, cold stores, fertilizer applications, weather update,
pesticides , fungicides, spray motors, etc optimizes the farmers efficiency
and such applications save time and money to the farmers. By the use of
modern technology our agricultural economy and food supply got increased
which led the positive impact on farmers and on the national economy.
 In modern time technology made it possible to grow crops even in a desert
by use of agricultural biotechnology. This type of technology has been
engineered to survive plants in drought conditions. Crops are being made
resistant to drOughts and pests by introducing traits into existing genes of
plants through genetic engineering.
 Modern agricultural techniques help a little land holder farmers to cultivate
vast quantities of food and yarn in shorter period of time. Modern
transportation helps farmers to make food stuffs available on market in time
http://dx.doi.org/10.19085/journal.sijbpg050101 2
 from the farm and also helps them to transport fertilizers or other farm
products from one place to another. Under modern technology farmers mix
nutrients in water in order to improve the quantity of crops. Technology
brought the revolution in agriculture and it still needs more to do in this field
to save the life of farmers and also to increase the economic growth of our
country.
 Impact of science and technology on environment:
Solar energy the eco-friendly form of energy.

 Technology has affected all the aspects of social world, environment is one
of them. A good environment belongs to a good society.
 In modern time people of India suffer too much by the environmental
pollution which has become the big social issue because people are not using
the proper methods of modern technology to protect the social environment.
 Modern technology is the main power to preserve the natural habitat
because technology has provided us such tools which help us to check the
levels of environmental pollution such as: water pollution, soil pollution,
noise pollution, air pollution, etc.
 Technology aware us about the life cycle of a product and its consequences
on environment.
 Technology helps in analysis of raw materials that need to be mined or
grown and aware us how to disposal the products which are no longer
needed. Computers optimize industrial processes to conserve energy and to
reduce waste.
 By the help of technology solar energy is being used which is pollute less
and long lasting source of energy. In past trains were using coals as the main
fuel which was producing large amount of carbon monoxide which is a
harmful gas but by the modern technology electricity is used instead of coal
which produces more energy and also it is free from pollution.
 The used materials like rubber, plastic, steel, iron, paper and water etc are
recycled and used again and again to conserve energy and to protect
environment from degradation. Infrastructure and development under
http://dx.doi.org/10.19085/journal.sijbpg050101 2
 technology made a positive impact on our society such as: water supply
tanks, sewage lines, mecdamization of roads, public gardens and fitness
centers are all important aspects of social life and add the beauty of our
environment. People should use modern techniques in proper way to protect
the environment from pollution.
Impact of science and technology on communication:
Technology connect families

 Communication is the important tool of modern life. The world becomes

global village with the advancement of science and technology especially in
information technology.
 Science and technology has brought the enlightenment in methods of
communication of modern time. People are becoming more dependent on
communicating with society and family through different channels of
modern technology. World is moving fast towards development and people
have less time to talk face to face and to visit one anothers residence so they
use modern technology to overcome from these time consuming processes.
 From the innovation of the telegraph and telephone to the arrival of the
Internet, technology has provided tools to keep people in touch with each
other and also express and share their feelings and opinions with others.
Mobile phones not only help us to listen ones voice but also we can watch
them during call.
 We can also use social networking sites for announcement of social issues
and other awareness programmes. Technology improves the quality of
communication and it is helpful for the society by every means. This can be
fruitful in politics and activism. Such as, photos and video clips recorded
secretly through a cell phone can be speedily shared online through websites
such as YouTube, face book, twitter and whatsapp.
 These social networking sites are being used as a tool for protest. For any
social development or social control technology is the standard key to bring
revolution in social communication.

Impact of science and technology on health and hygiene:

Treatment under modern technology

 Advanced technology is applied in many areas of healthcare for diagnosis as

well as for medical therapy. Medical Technology is the use of scientific
knowledge to improve the health care by new equipment to make work
easier, pleasant, quick and productive.
 Now, in modern hospitals, technologists and biomedical engineers are
involved in routine day to day work, research and look after the technical
development.
 The rise in life expectancy, in particularly the decline in infant mortality,
remains some of the most impressive achievements of modern technology.
The invention of modem antibiotics led the positive impact on human health.
Decline of the mortality rate and controlling population contraceptives are
the blessings of modern technology which balances the social setting in the
world. Modern technology and scientific methods are used by households to
control the diseases and to check the nutritious food used for good health.
 Fitness centers are being used on the basis of modern technology to shape
the body into a perfect look. Under the modern technology filtrate plants are
being constructed to provide the quality water to the residents and also
government use to grow plants and flowers of different species around the
residential colonies to convert them into hygienic atmosphere.
 Health is an important component of life and it is modern technology which
helps us to select proper food, proper nutrients, proper calcium and other
necessary requirements for healthy human body.
 Healthy body produces healthy mind and healthy mind creates innovations
which becomes the building block of technology and finally technology
helps in social development. The introduction of any new technology in
medical science must provide better health care and improved quality of life
at affordable expenses without losing human touch

 
 Impact of science and technology on Infrastructure:
India under modern technology

 Infrastructure is the basic unit of development. Modern technology has

provided the basic assets for the developing infrastructure.
 Developed countries are recognized by solid infrastructure so it is necessary
for the country to become modern in means of infrastructure.
 Our country is also moving towards a big change in the form of
infrastructure and it has covered almost all the necessary requirements of
society such as roads, flyovers, bridges, hospitals, education institutions,
proper housing colonies, public parks, play grounds, public toilets, airports,
railway tracks, shopping malls, vehicle parking zones, proper arrangement of
domestic garbage, plantation around the roads, national parks, etc for the
public welfare. Technology is becoming a most important part of the
infrastructure in developed and developing countries.
 Proper infrastructure makes a proper way for the people of country to adjust
in the society and to adopt the proper social setting. Under the modern
technology transportation services work faster as compared to the past due to
the working of modern technology on its right base.
 Infrastructure strategy should not only be deeply informed and influenced by
the impact and emerging potential of technology, but should also be based
on solid evidence and good advice about what’s possible.
 The gradual move from using infrastructure in existing and new traditional
infrastructure assets and using the disruptive potential of cloud-based,
technology enabled infrastructure services will not be without its challenges.
This is especially true as the new opportunities to lift the performance and
impact of infrastructure through wider use of technology meets resistance
from current procurement systems and cultures.
Impact of science and technology on Government:

http://dx.doi.org/10.19085/journal.sijbpg050101 2
 Technology becomes mediator between government and society

 Government at local levels is facing challenges posed by increased demand

for better quality of governance. While the developed world and some Asian
countries have moved very quickly, under the modern technology every
sector of government is empowered through E-Governance.
 Modern technology helps the government to take every unit of society under
their vigilance and for their better services.
 The country is reached on transitional stage and people are getting benefits
from these services. The most popular services like, eeducation, e-court, e-
police, e-transport and e-tax etc. The impact of E-Governance has also been
observed in rural part of India where services like “Rashtriya Krishi Vikas
Yojana”, “Kisan Call Centre” etc are more popular. India continues to lag
behind in meeting the increasing levels of citizen expectations. (Welch,
2015) [20], The massive population growth, diversity of cultures, acute
poverty and high illiteracy create numerous difficulties in delivery
mechanisms of government services.
 The existing processes of service delivery and governance need to
be improved. E-governance is the effective use of Information &
Communication Technology (ICT) to improve the system of
governance that is in place, and thus provide better services to the
Citizens. E-Governance is considered as a high priority agenda in
awareness and development of nation. E-Governance has been
recognized as a vital force for transformational improvement in
quality, efficiency and effectiveness of governance. The Good
Governance involves increased participation of the citizens,
greater accountability and transparency in the operation of these
government bodies.
