I CARD FOR POOR AND OUR SYSTEM

It is heart rending to see the children of maids . They bring their children as no body in jhuggi to look after them...Permit to share what i saw about ten ago in Madhuvan, new delhi 110092 .
We have An ornamental park just near the colony entrance.
I t is a small park and fully crowded with children,women and men . In the morning right from six even in winter season you will find ladies and gentlemen walking along foot path fully covered in woolens and still shivering walking clock wise and anti clock wise. I do not why not know why some prefer to walk in the direction of needle of ANALOGUE CLOCK. And others go in other direction. But all shiver.
The small children of maidsbetween age of four to ten, are bare foot and with virtually no woolens.
Some of us rebuke them for dirtying park.
I watched this drama as my house opens towards the park.
In fact a 20 ft lane separates us.
One day in a flash i saw human interaction playing its role. I brought biscuits, gave one to each of them. I continued this for a couple of days.
Then started the relationship.
I and the children became one...i waiting for morning and they waiting for me.
I talked to other morning walkers for clothes which their children are not using.
Acouple came with a big bag full of woolens.
I asked a lady for help.
The children had good woolen clothes.
Then for shoes, i gave money to buy shoes or chappals.
It was wonderful to see the beaming faces.
The children are ill clad because their parents are very very Poor.
They are not getting benefits of below POVERTY PENSION BECAUSE THEY HAVE NO ID.
I tried for one and i know what hassels are in the way.
TELL WHAT YOU CAN DO TO HELP.

A few can win and majority can be mauled

Since one thousand BC, a band of few came,looted,subjugated and ruled the majority. The huns,turks,moghuls,portugese,french and english men were the rulers.
The majority of us(let us admit) is tax evader,law breakers and uncompassionate in the land of budha.
The situation can change provided we will to change.
Let ony one or two come forward,identify a problem and work for the solution.
Problems are many....let us pick up small small first.
Why a taxi stand send you private cars in stead of taxis. Why our foot paths and roads are extension of shops.
Why even markings are not done in parking lots. If lanes are pained in white then vehicles will be parked properly.
Just pick up one and one locality and then see the result
