Impact of Social Media on Youth — SSB Lecturette Speech Outline

SSB Lecturette practice illustration — candidate delivering a 3-minute speech at a lectern on the GTO ground to a semicircle of fellow candidates.

Attention, identity and a phone in the PIQ hobbies line. Use this outline under a 3-minute prep clock, then speak without reading.

Category: social · Format: 3 min prep + 3 min speech

Opening hook (~40 seconds)

The average young Indian does not “use” social media — they live a second shift inside it.

Body — three points (~90 seconds)

  1. Upside: learning, movements, small businesses, staying close to family in another city.
  2. Downside: comparison, sleep loss, rage bait, and hobbies that exist only as a PIQ line.
  3. Discipline here is a daily screen budget and one offline skill you can demonstrate at interview.

Closing line (~50 seconds)

Own the tool. If the tool owns you, the IO will see it in your eyes.

What to avoid

You use these apps — do not pretend you do not. Sound honest.

Practise with the hub timer and the Lecturette GTO guide (3-3-3 structure, body language, chit selection).
