The term culture is something which our parents got from our grandparents and which we are getting from our parents and today if we say that by seeing some filthy or some foreigner channel we are losing our culture then I would like to say that this is not the foreign channel which are destroying our culture but this is we people who are not able to adere to our culture firmly.
Friends the only aim of any channel is to entertain the mass and some channel shows this type of programmes to which if some youth watch, it work as an entertainment for them but if same youth watch that same thing with his family it appears vulgarity to them and if we say that if that some youths are watching the vulgar scenes with their family then it doesn't mean that they lacks culture or moral but it is so because they have good understanding between them.

According to my opinion how we can say that foreign channels destroying our culture. Most of the resources are coming from foreign companies and real India is also given by Britishers concerning development, Information technology and many more. So we cannot blame them. Fact is our thinking is only to make money for that we cannot bother what is good or bad but we need it by any cost. So at last I want to say that culture is maintained by people not by any channels or programes its all our understanding.

I think that the foreign channels is not destroying our culture. Its depends on our thinking and leaning that, what I am getting from these channels and what is our thinking after watch. From these channel we improve our knowladge and we come to know about the word. For ex in discovery channel they tell us many funny fact of animals. In cartoon channels there are many program play, these program developed the childern's thinking and improve their ideas.
If we think about that there are many vulgar seen and program run in these channel we should not learn it or not use. Its for youth for their entetainment.

I'm thirteen years old. And I'm not a Indian citizen. I'm a pure sri lankan. But India and sri lanka are very close countries. So I think our cultures are also very similar to each other. Foreign channels don't distroy our cultures. If we use it as a tool it won't do any harm to us. But the problem is most of us think that they are the reason why our cultures fade away smoothly. ! if we look deep into this problem, we can perfectly figure out that its our own minds which distroys our cultures.

According to my opinion foreign channels are not at all destroying our culture. They are the one of the means of learning foregin languages and knowing their culture. Morever, people in India need to know outside culture as most of the Indian countries are doing business with western companies. And in addition to it, if children in India are adopting the western culture so it is of concern with upbringing of their parents.

I don't think that foreign channels are destroying our culture. Infact it providing us various technical knowledge which Indian channels are not able to providing due to budget etc. You can see there are so many Indian channels are there which providing some uncensored kind of programs. So it depend on one how he would take it. Foreign cartoon channels providing more knowledgeble programs by which children can learn some basic things of schooling & they can aware of various things. So I would say that foreign television channels are not destroying Indian culture rather they are providing more appropriate channels.

In INDIA we have different television channels from different nations like US, UK etc. As all those are foreign channels there are movies and some other programs which reflect their culture and habits. What we all have to do is just to watch the channel programs and to know about their culture, language, their way of speaking, accent, their way of living. If it is better than ours we should try to inpliment in our lives. But this judgement is depend on ones mindset. We have our own culture and they had their own culture. We can't compare these things.
Of course, government had made all the foreign channels available for us. There will be no develoment if we consider our culture is top without considering all other cultures. We should observe their lifestyle their innovative programs if any and we should try to broad up our knowledge.
In the same way there are also other channels like Discovery, Animal planet which deals with the nature, science, etc. There are no Indian channel in this fashion. It is good opportunity for us to know about all the different kinds of birds, animals, through this channels.
So I conclude that No foreign channel will try to distroy our culture. The Indian culture is developed by Indians and all indians should respect it and should not forget it though he had well known with the other nation cultures.

There are a number of foreign channels which give us valuable information. Those channels of course show some sort of over exposure which we consider vulgar but actually part of their culture. So we indians are not suppose to blame them for that because even in our custom earlier women were not allowed to dress properly.
So my point is that our culture is deeprooted and hence impossible to get destroyed by a foreign channel. We should keep in mind that only we can contaminate our culture by inculcating their habits to our routine. So if our culture get destroyed we are responsible and we are to be blamed for that.

I think In my opinion, I am not agree that foreign television channels are responsible for it because it provide us so many knowledge of channels like discovery, animal planet, history, national geographic channel and so on. Foreign channels enhancing our knowledge.
We are human and knew that what is right or wrong. There are so many Indian and Foreign shows on TV which is diverting our mind, specially young generation. It depend on us in which types of shows we are watching on TV. Finally we have to watch knowledgeable and entertainment shows.
