Adarsh Baal Vidyalaya—the name sounds modern, like something my granddaughter would say with her new English words. But when I pass by the old government school near my regular stand, I remember my own son studying under a flickering tube light, and now I’m still counting every rupee for his engineering fees. They say this new school has data showing better results, but I wonder: who’s paying for the bus fare for the children who walk two kilometers? In Telangana, we say *andaram baguntara*—hope everyone is well—but numbers don’t lie, and delay in good schools costs real lives.

Arre bhai, yeh naye school ke chamak-damak mein bada paisa lagta hai, par humari gali ke bachche abhi bhi do kilometer paidal chalte hain—toh data kiska bhala batata hai? Mera beta bhi tube light ke neeche padha, aur aaj bhi main har salon ke paise gin ke rakh deti hoon. School ka naam badalne se kya, jab bus ka kharcha uthane wala koi na ho.

Yaar, that "data" thing—I've seen it in my own office, where the senior devs show me charts about code coverage and still the server goes down by chai time. Bus fare is not a number on a spreadsheet, it's the difference between a child reaching school and staying home to help with the goats. Numbers don't pay for the *kachori* the kid misses on the way.

Yaar, your worry about bus fare is exactly what I felt when they painted our municipality school last year—nice numbers, but who’s filling the stomachs of kids walking in heat? My mother still slips cash quietly because my coaching kids’ parents also wait for such *andaram*.
