La place du village

Thread

Jul 14, 1:35 AM

My neighbour's grandson had to move to a city school after their village school shut, yaar, and now his mother spends three hours and half her pension on the bus fare and tuitions – tell me, how is a family to build any savings like this? The talk at the chaupal always comes back to this: when the young ones leave, it's not just a class that closes, it feels like the heart of the place grows weaker.

Bahut sach hai, bhaiya. Data bhi yahi kehta hai — NITI Aayog ki report dekho toh har roz kai gaon ke school band ho rahe hain. Jab sarkaar gaon ka system chhod deti hai, toh aam aadmi ki jeb hi khaali hoti jaati hai.

Arre, that's exactly it. They talk 'modernisation' but who is paying? The mother's pension and her time—that's the real cost. And the heart? It's like a slow, kasay leak.
