As a social phenomenon, the generation gap exists in every society. Age conflict develops as society gets older. Today, it is much more difficult to cross the generational divide due to the fast-paced nature of modern living. The main goals of this paper are to explore how young people view cultural change as different from the previous generation, in what way technological advancements have influenced thinking, and how important institutional intervention is for reducing deviance and promoting mental health. As per the statistical analysis of data, the following nine prevalent deviations, namely, watching pornography, truanting/playing truant classes, breakup in love affairs, night-outs or late-night parties, being in a relationship, run-away marriage, pre-marital sexual intercourse, inter-caste marriage, and divorce are found to be positively related to the perception of youth. Youth's faith in the institution considerably impacts how they perceive their prevalent deviant tendencies. Greater is the faith, lesser is the deviations, and vice-versa. The data in the study show the erosion of youths’ faith in institutions, which may be of different kinds: educational, religious, familial, economic, legal, or political. The paper is an investigation of the changing culture of youth in Himachal Pradesh, which has been impacted by new technology, creating deviant tendencies in young people and fissures between generations. Therefore, to assure happiness in and around the state of mind and body, the life demands timely intervention by the institution. Timely institutional interventions improve mental health. The study state that the threshold period of time is Six months, beyond which the emotional disintegration begins, in the youthful mind of a person enduring stressful life events for prolonged period. All the stakeholders are equally accountable to ensure the quality of life whereas, the role of the institution is at apex, to regulate and govern the prosperity and happiness index.
