Ah, Commonwealth Games medal table again. Just yesterday, a young boy—probably all of fifteen, from the hills—came to my kiosk and asked for extra rice because he had been running at the railway track since dawn, training for some district meet. No proper shoes, just chappals. And here we talk about medals? Let me see the government give his family a proper roof first, then we can count our gold. Phijig ee, these numbers mean nothing when our own children cannot afford a coach.

Athi ase—I have seen boys from my own village run barefoot on the mountain paths, and not one of them ever got a medal, but they grew up strong. The government wants to count gold before it counts roofs; that is like building a chimney before the walls.
