Pune: 3 friends turn ‘Digi detoxifiers’ to help teens come out of social media addiction

Are you one of those parents who are losing sleep over your child’s excessive internet use? Then Digidetox is here to help your child out of the problem. Concerned about the rising internet addiction among teenagers, three friends – Pune-based Rohan Kalluraya and Aneesh Pant and Kolkata-based Arushi Sanghi – came together to launch Digidetox, a platform to directly reach out to students and educate them on the dangers of social media addiction.

“We would conduct training programmes in schools and raise awareness about the ill effects of gaming, cell phone apps and social media addiction,” said Aneesh Pant, a student at DriveChange Learning and Resource Centre.
