CHILD LABOUR?



Three brother and one sister are on their way to a nearby shopping market(Haata).It's early morning, they take materials which will be sold by their father after some time.This is no child labour, they are just giving a helping hand to their parents earning.This photograph was taken ten year back at Rourkela on a fine morning.The eldest is the one who is driving it and other two, a brother and sister look on.This year i met one of them in the market managing his own shop.The girl is already married and mother of a child.Younger brother is going to school more for free lunch than real reading desire. Some are destined to become good scholars others are mediocre students and few do not succeed in education.If you look in to the history most of the famous were just average students but later on in their life they became good writers or scientists or doctor and became world famous.Majority of the best car mechanics in India are school drop outs .Education is a must for every one but forcing young immature brains to study all the time will produce useless citizens than a creative mind.See the smile on their face, they are enjoying the work, its not forced upon them.
