As they build the society and nation of the future, young people are an asset for developing nations like India. Students are increasingly relying on social media platforms for their formal and informal interactions with their schools, families, society, and friends as a result of the global COVID-19 lockdown that has been in effect for the past few years. Due to the prevalence of new virus variants, the threat of a pandemic has not been eliminated, even though we have emerged from it. Online interactions lack some of the hidden curriculum's values because they are limited in their ability to be made. Moral development requires children to be able to tell the difference between right and wrong and to be free to act in a way that is right for them. India has a very long cultural history from which society can learn a lot about life and its values. Although educational institutions are getting back on track, more and more unethical behavior is still happening, which is a problem for society. The government has taken the NEP 2020 and IKS initiatives to create a society with more values. Although a number of studies have been conducted to improve students' moral and spiritual values, we still lack implementation because it is so important for teachers to instill values and culture in their students. This study was done in a school in Delhi to find out what was causing students to be more immoral and how to fix it. 100 secondary school students were selected at random for the study's sample. A morality questionnaire and personality test based on hereditary and environmental factors were used to collect the data. Personal interviews with secondary school students were followed by descriptive statical analysis. According to the findings, youth moral atrophy was on the rise, but it can be reversed with the right advice and guidance. Values can be taught to students through curriculum, and they should be a part of their daily routine. Our ancient Guru-Sisya Parampara and Indian Knowledge system which has numerous suggestive and proven methods can be used to teach moral values and incorporate universal values in students.
