Abstract	In an era dominated by rapid technological integration, the boundary between utility and addiction has blurred for the student population. This article examines the novel public awareness campaign led by National Teacher Award recipient Indranil Mukherjee. Centered on the empowering mantra, "I CAN SWITCH OFF MY MOBILE PHONE," the initiative addresses the physiological and psychological toll of digital misuse. By advocating for a return to traditional literary engagement and physical play, Mukherjee presents a scalable model for fostering self-restraint and social responsibility in future generations.
