The Child India

School bell for P.T (physical training) period rang in a school. Children of different classes reached the school ground with renewed energy. They got split out in groups and played different games. One such group of boys and girls played together building sand castles. They were at least 7 years old.

                A small boy in that group said, “In today’s class, our teacher taught us to draw the map of India.  He even drew small towns in it! Created streets in those towns and even drew houses in those streets. Can we also draw like that and play within it? But we should draw big map of India in sand first. ”

                This new game seemed interesting to them. So they began drawing India on sand. Marked towns and small houses within it. ‘Child India’ born finally. All the kids inhabited into the ‘child India’. Before becoming the citizens of child India, those 40 little citizens of India, were diversified by class, community, money and lot more things. Upper class Indian, lower class Indian, Hindu child, Muslim child, Christian child, rich, poor and countlessly diversified. But the inhabitants of ‘child India’ had no diversifications, both in soul and sand. The soul thoughts of the citizens of ‘child India’ were the same, undiversified and innocent.

                The citizens of ‘child India’ made schools in their country. They appointed teachers. Cultivated crops, and farms, set up trade. They ran families.  They were in harmony.

                Suddenly one boy said: "Everything is fine. But we haven’t created police".

A tiny girl innocently replied: “We don’t want police. If we have police, then we should make people steal”.

                They dropped the idea of police.

The ‘Child Indian society’ was running beautifully in harmony. But it was time for the school bell.

The time for the citizens of ‘child India’ to get back to ‘real India’.

Respected politicians and ‘social architects’ of India. Look at these children quick, before they enter into real India. Learn from them, or at least don’t poison their pure heart.  

At least, let our children live in harmony, in the future.
