, but certain steps can definitely be taken to tackle these problems. In my opinion, there are main three factors to be blamed for the isolation among people living in urban areas.

Firstly

, people tend to communicate with others via

as Facebook and Twitter. The internet makes our lives more convenient where people can purchase anything or expression their opinion easily, so they might feel that it is not necessary for face to face communication.
