Yes, this is the condition of the modern developing India. Even though the Right to Education act was passed in 2009 we're still struggling to bring the poor helpless children to school. Even today on the road I see children begging and laboring to fill their stomach. It's not like they don't want to study, it's just that they did not get the opportunity that you got. Don't you feel helpless and sad when a small boy tugs at your shirt and begs you for money? Since you were lucky enough to have the opportunity of attending school then college, it's upon you to make sure that every Indian child who wishes to study, gets the opportunity to study
