Abstract
In the wake of globalization, every individual from the diverse
cultures around the world are busy in the attempts to further their progress in
their lifestyles by applying every single tested and authorized outcome of the
scientific research and modern technology in their lives. The people of the
state of Jammu and Kashmir are no different to this world order. Considering
the growing educational levels of the people of the state, they have been more
welcoming to the science and its technological advancements, if at all they
found it easing their standards of living in any manner. This applicability has
no doubt transformed their lifestyles by replacing their early modes
altogether. In this backdrop, the paper focusing on the extent of these
transformations through the applicability on the lives of the residents of
backward areas in Jammu and Kashmir, is an offshoot of a primary study, the
data of which was collected from some selected backward villages from each
tehsil of district Anantnag using interview schedule. The paper finds that the
scientific innovations are a major boost for the transformation of the people
from backward areas. The people from these areas in particular have seen the
barriers between them and the rest of the people diminishing when they have
begun to welcome and apply science, marring orthodox mentalities to sail on the
ship of progress. The only constraint is the lower socio-economic profile which
is gradually improving by their special status.
