The former JD urged youth not to be addicted to technology particularly Facebook. He said, “It is better to have four friends who can read your face like a book, than have thousands on Facebook who hardly know you”. He also advised the youth to make sure they should control the usage of Facebook but should not get controlled by it.

He also has few good words for the parents of students. He advised them not to become addicted to TV serials. “You should be an example of positive energy to your children. Be a life-long learner. Every house should produce a Vivekananda. Make sure they read books than spending hours on Facebook.”
