OPEN YOUR EYES so that those kids who are deprived of "education" can open "books"...!!
Education would perhaps not solve "ALL" problems... But it could stop making things "WORSE"...!!
Education : One of the most important words but equally underestimated...
No education --> Child Labour --> No employment --> Poverty --> Frustration --> Social vices --> Gambling --> ALCOHOL --> Inability to think radically --> Responsibilities overlooked --> Unhappy family --> Unhappy people --> Unhappy nation...!!!
This could sound absurd and unrealistic but mostly all these issues are somewhere or the other linked with each other!!!
It is imperative for everyone in the nation to be "educated", "Educated" enough to realize what is he doing...
Is he on the "right path" or has he taken to a wrong one...
The answer to this can only be given by instilling the basic values in a child...
How will this be possible???
When everyday inflation touches new skies, it is not really practically possible for everyone to "afford" studies....
But this problem has a solution...
At individual level, we can impart education for free to the kids serving at the tea stalls or the kids selling various things at the traffic signals...
If we are financially enough stable, we can even take the responsibility of education for at least "1" of such kids...
If everyone would make such simple efforts from his/her side, we could curb child labour upto a certain extent and even bring an end to education... So two targets at a single shot!!!
By reading this, you would be thinking what miracle would educating one child do???
But if everyone does it for 1 child each, it would be really worth all the efforts...!!
Have you ever imagined how a child "working" at the tea stall would be feeling when people ill-treat him???
"Aye pappu, chai la..."
How he would be feeling when he would not be given enough money for working hard throughout the day..?
He deserves a good upbringing...
He deserves education just like everyone else...
If our constitution has the guidelines of right to "equality", that kid also should not be deprived of that right...!!
At the government level, [ if anyone is reading this ] please give grant to more government schools...
Actually this is possible only if there is no black money and no corruption...
So basically this is a vicious cycle which needs to be corrected from its very roots ...
We can start the process from "EDUCATION"...!!
Make EDUCATION be in the reach of "common man"...
Don't make "education" a business and luxury...
It is a necessity and it is "your" responsibility!!!
It is, in fact, our responsibility as educated and mature citizens of the country...!
That kid deserves to study, play and have a "childhood" where he's free from all worries... He's not supposed to EARN and look after his family ... Atleast not when he's hardly 10 years old...!!
Belonging to a "poor family" is not a good excuse to justify his plight!!!
It is important to inculcate the things called "morals", "ethics" and "values" in him so that he can become a responsible citizen of the country...!!
Another important thing is educating females as well as males equally...
Don't let your beloved daughter wash dishes while your son gets ready to go to school...
Your daughter too could make her parents proud!!!!!
This won't happen by reading talks of wisdom or writing long status updates...
We've to get up and get going... Do whatever bit of help we can!!!
We've to do something concrete in the name of education...
Only then we can create the India of our imagination!!!
