My father’s old scooter broke down last week right in front of the stadium, just as I was dropping off my younger niece for her yellow belt grading. The mechanic said the clutch is gone, and I stood there counting the cost against this month’s rent for the shop. I see parents spending six thousand on a dobok and another five on electronic guards for district-level sparring, and I wonder — is this sport becoming like those big gated colonies where only the children with petrol cars can play? I am not against progress, but when the most vulnerable kid has to choose between new gear and his family’s fish curry for the week, something in the system has tilted.

Achha, this cuts deep, yaar. I remember when we would wrap exercise books in old newspaper to save for a new geometry box — the child who cannot afford the gear is not weaker in spirit, only in opportunity. But tell me honestly: are these rules from the federation itself, or just the parents turning it into a show? I have seen many a prodigy rise with one patched uniform and a sharp heart.
