Bachche... Mann Ke Sachche.....



                It’s always great to see little kids early morning going to school. They come with their mom and dad to catch the bus in Indralok Phase III and those children who don’t have facility of bus; their moms take them in a sharing auto. Year ago, I met a cute little girl when I travelled in the First Class compartment of Borivli bound train early morning. His dad said,” Thank God this Borivli local started. When it wasn’t running, I had to take her in Bus to her school from here. And you can imagine what troubles I was having with the bus. Better late than never, now I have bought my own home in Borivli and will soon shift there.” I changed the train after getting new job. Ever since, I haven’t found the duo.

                I believe that little girl is very lucky that she has got so much loving and caring mom and dad. For the sake of their little daughter, they located themselves in Borivli. The girl is too quite intelligent and innocent one who is a monitor of her class. But many children aren’t that much luckier. Since Navratri, a little girl has arrived on platform No 1 & 2 of Bhayander Platform. She is begging here and there on platform. She bows the commuters; she touches the knees of them and asks for some rupees. One may not give because you know how hard it is to earn money nowadays. But when I imagine about it, it makes me much worried. Where will she go? What will she do? How many like her will be there? There was a little girl who begged in slow locals between Mahalaxmi & Mumbai Central areas. She was very cute little girl and she had a family too. When I asked her about her parents, she told about them. The daily commuters knew her very well and I, too. Once she came and sat in my lap for a while and started playing. She was cute. Now I really don’t know what she’s doing now.

              
  See the page of Mumbai Mirror, it is published today. I captured this image as the full page, showing the present conditions of the children in our society. It might have hurt many people with hearts in the city. If they aren’t, it means they are heartless.

                Starting clockwise the paper where a dead baby girl is found in a dustbin in Kalyan last day. She is a newborn baby girl and some disgusting person killed her and threw her in a dustbin in a plastic bag in Kalyan. One of the passengers passing by saw it and he was shocked. First he saw the bag which was spotted with blood and later he saw the girl’s foot which was popped out from that blood spotted bag. He was stunned and scared, immediately called the cops. Cops found one the baby girl’s hand and leg was separated from body. She was killed in a cruel way. The second one is a mother resting on a bed in KEM Hospital after caesarean delivery. When she handed over her baby girl by nurse, she denied accepting the child saying that she delivered a baby boy and the nurse swapped it to a baby girl. It’s KEM hospital yaar, one of the biggest ones in Mumbai. This is strange how they can do such thing???? She told that after her caesarean delivery she listened to the doctor that she had delivered a baby boy and didn’t accept her child. Now the child is being survived by the nurses of the KEM Hospital with Breast Milk Bank. Now mother is asking for DNA test. You can imagine if DNA report will not favor the mother, what a child will have to see in future????

                The third one is actually interesting where you can see a nurse standing with a baby. Its 5 year old baby boy was thrown away on the tracks of Central Mumbai, again Kalyan on tuesday. It was lying there for many hours until the commuters on Kalyan Platform saw it. The GRP immediately picked up the baby boy and found it unconscious. It was given medical treatment where doctors revealed shocking things. The baby was beaten very hardly and it had got many rashes on its skin. There was a 5 inches cut which was done by a sharp object with intention of killing on the baby’s neck. Doctors had to stitch the wound which was bleeding continuously. Now this baby is healthy and also being survived by the nurses of Kalyan Hospital with Breast Milk Bank. The GRP police have named the baby a “Miracle Baby” after his survival from railway tracks. His parents are still unfound. This is what happening all around with the children of our society. One may sleep on velvet made bed sheet with air conditioned peaceful room, and other is thrown on tracks, neglected and begs. Who later becomes a thief, a robber, a rapist or a prostitute…

                Every morning I think, “It’s enough. I am not gonna buy Mirror anymore.” But I can’t stop myself buying it. Not because to see those women in bikinis. But to see which little life has given sacrifice today…
