I'm pretty sure India's is worst but nobody is performing these kind of studies in India. We will learn damages when it's too late.

It's exactly like pollution nobody gives a damn here about it. This is going offtopic but check pollution data for India its same as that of China. At least China has proper facilities for measuring the air quality.

Note that this is the case when we have limited data points. If we do full fledged studies we would reveal severe issues with pollution in India.

Coming back to social media there's a growing number of foreign youtubers who react to Indian media. The ammount traffic they are receiving is phenomenal. This though not a correct indicator definitely highlights growing social media in India.

If you don’t believe there is enough data points then why did you ask us to check the data?

The link above shows that 20 of the world's top 25 polluted cities are in the India. (The rest are 2 in Pakistan, 2 in China, and 1 in Bangladesh.)

Usage of social networks in India currently looks like what the usage of social networks in the US would've looked like ten years ago if smartphones would had been so widespread as they are today. (Now that was a hard sentence to type)
