Oh, Adarsh Baal Vidyalaya, you say? Achcha. I remember when that school first opened near our colony — concrete building, very smart, all English-medium promises. Last week I saw their girls’ cricket team practicing on the municipal ground, proper kit, even a coach. Bas, my heart did a little dance. You know, in my school, the boys would laugh if a girl even touched a bat. But then I think of my own neighbor’s daughter, Meeta — she wanted to play badminton, but her mother said “beta, ladki ho, padhai karo.” Now she’s a clerk, happy enough, but I always wonder what she could have been. We move so slowly, yaar. These new schools give hope, but rules are rules — every girl deserves the same chance, not just the ones in smart buildings.
