The culture of India is been disappearing by many ways…

  • the youths in India do not respect their elders, the families in India live separate... And thus have lost contacts with their other relatives…
  • the big point which is making the culture of India to disappear in Bollywood the dressing style of the actresses, the slang word used in movies are been influenced the youth to bad step of life. The young ones try to act the same as these actors do which is very bad to the culture of India…
  • the lack of morals
  • the lacking faith in God
  • having late night parties
  • the influence of drugs and alcohols
  • least interest in Indian languages like Sanskrit, Hindi
  • Celebrating mothers day, fathers day, valentine day, fools day etc rather than celebrating our Indian festivals and thus wasting their precious time of life
  • Thinking to be independent at an early age

So, I strongly say that accept good from that and try to know our Indian culture more than u definitely change mind.

Positive impacts are high when compared with negative impacts.

Its accepted globally in any rapid development there will be high possibilities of negative also to grow along with the good.

Importance is being given to women and to their feelings.

Democracy is being used which was in discussion so far.

Racisim is kept apart.

But on the whole we lost our patriotism.

Culture is spoiled.

More number of divorce.

Earlier India is known for affection that people show on each other but now only money money and money.

Everyone want to go abroad and start praising the roads and people of other country but they forget to follow the same discipline in their own country when they comeback.

One reason they say is they are educated.

positive impacts are that girls have come forward and we are adopting to more democratic ideas. Freedom of India and its transformation was only possible through modernisation.but it has its negatives.drugs and alcohols were introduced by it. Culture is forgotten by it. No patrotic feeling.

The separation of the individual as a unique person, separate from his or her environment; free will, rationalism, the view of conscience as a distinct mechanism of reason that can be proved correct or incorrect, a belief and even a legal system (no matter how frail) that every individual has innate, unalienable rights that cannot be sold away, exchanged, or denied based upon the person's condition, intelligence, or status in society. Western culture has strong foundations in logic, rationalism, and the quest for an ideal, educated society of equals. Western society places a strong emphasis on law and legal and civil order as two functions in support of each other. Western society also places great emphasis upon the written word, the exact meanings of words and phrases, and exact denotative meanings applied to words. Religion is built on doctrine. Government is built on a code of laws. Education is built on reading. In that sense, Western culture is devoted to what could be called a pursuit of the ideal or the purest form of everything. But this pursuit is a rational pursuit rather than an experiential pursuit. In its excesses, Western culture is often materialistic, can view technology as its salvation, and can mistake productivity and efficiency for human happiness.

There are both positive and negative effects of western culture on Indian youth. Positives such as use of democracy, keeping away racism, freedom to women, technological advancements, higher education and freedom of voice. The negatives are loss of patriotism, consumption of drugs and alcohol, negligence to traditions and culture and less respect to nation and its citizen. It all depends on individual what one wants to follow, good or bad.

Today's generation, particularly the youth, are all out to ape the Western culture. It has become a craze among the people to have a lifestyle like that of Westerners. The Western culture, not only in our country but throughout the world, is responsible to a great extent for bringing about development and change on social, economic, educational, scientific, etc, fields thus helping humankind to move towards progress. If one glances into the past, we find numerous examples where Western cultural ethos has helped to remove superstitions, fallacies and disastrous acts from our own Indian culture. In past Indian culture had many evil practices such as child marriage, sati etc… Western culture has not only removed many evils from our society but also made concerted efforts to bring in equality among all people of the country.Public Health· Due to Western influence, Indian culture benefited from improved sanitation and public health. Many Western doctors immigrated to India and introduced the region to Western medicine. Further, many wealthier Indians were trained and educated abroad in Western medicine and then returned to their home country to practice. Western medicine significantly reduced disease and sickness, in large part because health care became accessible. Education· Indian culture benefited from Western culture in the area of education. During British occupation, many schools and colleges were built throughout India. Literacy increased and, for the first time, the poorest classes of society had access to knowledge.

Do you mean Native Americans? That is the correct political term for them. Indian is the correct political term regarding natives to India.

Do you also mean the Europeans? Because the Native Americans WERE the Western Civilization until the Europeans migrated over.

There are a few things. The Europeans brought over a lot of things that they didn't have before like horses. That changed their lives greatly, allowing them to hunt buffalo better, to migrate more easily, etc. But also all kinds of trade goods--dishes, pots and pans, hairbrushes, clothes, tools, even guns.

There are more negative effects though.

Is western culture destroying the Indian culture?

Yes Western culture has the ability to affect Indian culture greatly, and I think most Indians will agree that Western influence has become more prominent in India in the last few decades. One of the main ways that Indian culture is influenced by the West is through media such as television shows, movies, social media, music videos and more. Because western media, especially American media, is so influential, it is hard to imagine Western influence into India slowing down anytime soon. Western culture, through media alone, has been vital in influencing the dressing styles, values, beliefs and language of Indian culture in recent years.
