Midday meals...

Our priorities are skewed and warped. I am referring to the condition of our Government schools and hospitals. I normally see crores are being spent on infra structure development of capital cities and metros but smaller cities, towns and of course, villages are always ignored by the government. I know thousands of hungry children are sent to schools,many a times by their illiterate parents only for the lure of mid day meals given at the government schools. Hundreds die everyday for lack of proper medication at the Government hospitals. Small children and weak undernourished men and women working at construction sites and doing other menial jobs are a harsh reality which we normally see everyday and do nothing. Most of the politicians turn a blind eye to most of the problems faced by the public. We can boast of our country doing any progress only if the poorer section of our society derive any benefits with all the advancement India is making. Have you noticed, our airports are becoming ritzy but our railway platforms are the same even after many decades. Our priority should be the improvement of our government schools and hospitals, let us make our India a little better...!!
