Children are like soft clay, you can mould them the way you want to. But, the harsh reality is that children get moulded by whatever they see and observe around them. Almost every child at Shahbad Dairy is into gambling of some form or the other. Who is to blame? People? Authorities? Society? Culture? Or no one?
At Shahbad Dairy you would find areas completely blocked by men who sit and gamble throughout the day. A game of cards is made even more exciting (at least for them) as it is coupled with drugs. What a deadly combination this indeed is men who are jobless, gamble day and night and get stoned each day without fail. That's what we call consistency!
Every now and then you find fights erupting due to some or the other reason. Mind you these are not normal friendly brotherhood fights, every time this happens police intervention is must as these people also carry weapons at times. When such a thing happens off you go, we have to leave the place and call the day off which leads to another unproductive day causing delay in work.
This is precisely the reason why we feel that causes to such hindrances are deeply rooted in the culture and way of life which has evolved over the period of time. So, the intervention or the approach to tackle such a problem cannot be so straight forward as we might like to think but we need innovative solutions and ideas for sure. Let us join hands and do our bit in whatever way we can.
Together We Can and We Will! Stay tuned for more...
