most of the time we come across to see that those who have all the amenities generally do not have the optimum curiosity while those who live in deficiency & jeopardy are always eager to know about the things around & if such people are being equipped with even a bit of instruments may do wonders for both the society & individual as well.
It was an afternoon & i was in my way to home when a "learning mobile van" came & stopped in the market & by the no time a guild of beggars (of the age group not more than 14 yrs.) encapsulated the van from all around. One of the social activist came out of the van & started interacting with these children...it was quite unprecedented to see the resplendent curious eyes of those children the way they were heading the every single utterances of that person. Suddenly i saw that some of the children were trying to touch the instruments (perhaps alien to them) in the van. Some children were watching those instruments so desperately as they wished to grab them in no time. By seeing their curios approach i also stood beneath them, just to experience the entire episode. A small child in filthy clothes asked one of the activists in the van by pointing towards an instrument - "saab ye kya hai" (sir what is this?). That activist handed over the instrument to the child & explained him about its functioning...i was astonished to see that he used the instrument in such a beautiful manner as if he was an expert & was an adroit to handle it...& that too after having just a single demo !
After seeing this event, i was floundering in my thoughts that what a learning potential this child had ! May he also be equipped with all the needed amenities of life ! After-a-while i went close to those children & asked one of them the reason behind their gathering around the van then he replied that these people talk good to us, we like the info they thwart to us, & above all we are quite fascinated with the instruments they bring with them like the mobile phones, handy cams, i-pods, etc....till now i have come to know how to record my voice & then play that at the same time..its really chilling ..i like these very much..may these uncles come everyday !- said the enchanted boy. Then asked them whether they go for school or not ?...the answer was quite a disappointing one...No !...reason !...the same traditional finance...
As i was interacting with these children, i saw on the other side of the road ...some well-dressed school children were waiting for their bus at the bus stop...i realized that none of them had even tried to come near the van..i asked one of the boy at the bus stop the reason that why had he not gone near the van ? & i was shocked with his answer - "these are just wastage of time & nothing else" he answered. Then i told him that he should go there, perhaps! he can enhance some knowledge ! He replied -"i don't have that much time"...& he passed me by talking to somebody on his cell-phone.
