Will They Get a Right To Study?
What makes a nation complete - wealth, good resources, self employed people, having healthy foreign 
relations...? No, it is education that completes us as an individual and then as a nation. If in a nation most of its people are educated then it certainly makes a difference. With education, a nation can achieve all the above things I have stated.
A few days back when I was visiting a nearby temple of my house I met few children; all of them were below the age of 14 years. When I saw them begging, I couldn't help talking to them. I went to them and asked their names first. And generally when we meet a child after asking his name we ask in which class they read or which school they study in. But I got shocked when they tell me that they don't study at all and live in this temple only.
The age at which children should get proper education they are begging in a temple. So, is this the India Chacha Nehru had dreamt of? No, certainly not! Education has become compulsory till the age of 14. But is it helping us in any way? No, not in the way it should. What is the point in making number of laws if we fail to implement them?
Our government's duty is just not to make laws but check its after effects also as I suppose we choose our candidates for mainly this purpose. Nobody pay attention to those who suffer at the ground level. So, is this the way how are we planning a developed India? And the main reason why we are still captured in these root problems is that nobody takes an initiative and come forward and we all just pass by the things we should stand by and take a cause. There is a need of building encouragement in the minds of children like 
those and their parents. They should be taught properly the importance of education as most of the children like them don't even realise; in a way like one nurtures a plant from the very beginning to make it grow healthier and to gain maximum fruit.
