Child is the Father of Nation! Do we care?

0
“Child is the Father of Nation”, this is a widely known quote given by the great freedom fighter and India’s first Prime Minister Pandit Jawahar Lal Nehru. Many decades have passed since Nehru expressed his feelings for children, who is fondly referred to as ‘Chacha Nehru’ for his special affection to children. The thought of Nehru is very simple and speaking about the children, but there is deep logic and wide imagination behind this. Children are called the angels for innocent hearts and creative brains till they attain the teenage. It depends on parents, wards, guardians and parents how they shape up the life and mind of Children that can contribute for the welfare of family, society, district, state, country and mankind as whole.



Sad to say the quote “Child is the Father of Nation” is hardly taken care off, which has directly affected the development of India in all sectors. If the policy makers of the country had given attention to the saying of ‘Chacha Nehru’ could have been much better. At the same time the common people of India are equally responsible for this dismal condition as they make the financial condition of theirs as the shield for not providing education to children. We can accept the poor financial condition as a reason for less literacy among the weaker section. But there is a fair portion among the landlords and well off Indian whose children are not well educated.

Education is primary tool and main base to uplift the society and nation. Although the literacy rate in whole country is not satisfactory but the condition is worst in the state of Bihar. Over the years the Centre and state governments have launched many schemes like Mid Day meal to attract children to schools, but still the desired results are not achieved. The standard of education given at Primary and Middle school levels are very bad, and the prime reason behind this is the appointment of unqualified teachers by the government. The worst condition is most of the teachers don’t know how to write English and other languages properly. Even they can’t pronounce the words properly.

Now coming back to the solution of the problem in context of nation especially Seemanchal, Purnia Division and Kishanganj, I feel we need to first raise our thinking level and understand the value of education among children and providing them lesson of humanity and well mannerism. Children are also needed to teach about the condition of the country and its possible remedies. We can’t leave everything on the government and it not possible to expect for a prosperous country until and unless we reform ourselves. Hence, from today onwards take care of Children around you – the fathers of nation and guide them properly so that they can contribute to the upliftment of the country.

Most importantly instead of looking around start this exercise from your family, relatives and colonies, then this can spread to state and national level. Surely your concern for the children of the country can do a ‘Magic’ and we can find many talented policy makers, politicians, doctors, technicians, journalists, social workers, judges, lawyers, scholars, scientists, management gurus, teachers, etc.
