IMPACT OF ANXIETY AND STRESS ON LONELINESS AMONG MALE ADOLESCENT STUDENTS OF MANIPUR
Journal Title: International Journal of Research in Social Sciences - Year 2018, Vol 8, Issue 2
Abstract
Manipur is a state in the North-East of India; it is one of the seven sister‟s state. JawaharLal Nehru once called it the „Jewel of India‟ (Joshi, 2002) and Lord Irwin named it the „Switzerland in India‟ (Sharma & Sharma, 2005). However, after four decades of insurgency problems leading to military operations, raid, political turmoil and violence it has become the „Kashmir in the North-East‟. Armed Forces Special Power Act; the very act enacted and adopted to control the insurgency and separatist movement in the whole of North-East State has done more harm than good. Numerous reports of Human Rights violation, extra judicial killings, disappearance, kidnapping, extortion are the first news that comes out of this state now. The civilians are caught in the cross fire between the insurgencies and numerous Indian security forces resulting in many innocent civilians dead or harmed (SATP, 2014). With the state government doing nothing or very less to intervene the civilians are left on their own. School Students are the most affected ones due to this unsettlement. The frequent general strikes, curfew and boycotts shuts down schools for most part of the academic year. This affects the academic career of most students especiallythose students in the tenth and twelfth standard facing crisis of board exams. Many dilemmas and confusion associated with being an adolescent(Coleman, 1998) mixed with the violent environment and the never-ending disturbance in their academic life gives rise to stress, anxiety and loneliness among these students.
