Once I was just passing a road and work of road making was in process ... I saw the males and
females were working ..togather....I just stood there watching them working in hot sun . The children
were playing there....I was surprised to see the children playing togather without any hassle....I sat there
nearby them on footpath......The thoughts were running throughly....Whts the future of those children...?
What could be done ..? i was ashamed of myself as I was not getting any plan to help the children....I
was quite worried thinking how many children staying in such condition.... Even if i want to teach them what
language can be used to teach them....As there was no surity of the stability of the childrens' stay...as they
move around wherever they get work... Then I heard a sound of a slap ...I looked in the direction.....The
mother of a child slapped her child...he was barely five years old.... I just went in the direction.....' KYA HUA ?'
I hoped that she would understand my Hindi.... They were tribal people.....But by her expression I made
out that she understood my query.....She showed a biscuit pack which the child picked up from a shop
without knowledge of the shopkeeper.....I tried to take out money from my purse but she nodded...
She took out the food she prepared before coming to work... It was wrapped in unclean cloth...And
all of them sat togather and started eating peacefully i knew there were rotis made out of corn........When I
went home the children were main focus for me...
.
They were wearing dirty clothes and thier hair was bunch of uncombed web with no oil in it....
We celebrate all the festivals ....we partying around.....but what about these children who have no dreams at
all......!
