Care Deprived Child

Introduction

In this era of development where Indian Economy is growing at the pace of 8-9% trajectory a new air of philanthropy has started to flow. All corporate houses from small to big one wish to do something helpful to the society in the form of better education in the villages, make available the medical facilities to the remote and tribe areas, educate farmers for better cultivation etc.  Now the question arises, whether everyone is been benefiting by these noble cause, whether the purpose of inclusion of the entire society for betterment is fulfilled, whether we are able to meet the basic requirements etc. These are the question which always arises when we talk about the society or nation as a whole which should be answered.

Save Poor child

§  In India we fail to build even the very basic infrastructure and facilities such as medical facilities, nutrient food, save the child from malnutrition, diarrhea etc, provide healthy atmosphere to grow/live/prosperous, drinking water and sanitation facilities. Then only we may think of electricity, education, employment opportunities, roads etc.

§  Even today 6.96 Cr children’s forced to live below poverty line i.e. very poor; they are not getting one time food. India infant mortality rate is 67 and Under five mortality rate is 93

§  43% of newborn children are underweight and 48% are stunted due to chronic under nutrition

§  The UN estimates that 2.1 million Indian children die before reaching the age of 5 every year – four every minute - mostly from preventable illnesses such as diarrhea, typhoid, malaria, measles and pneumonia. Every day, 1,000 Indian children die because of diarrhea alone.

To check the problem of malnutrition, diarrhea etc government of India started a system of Anganwadi in the year 1975 but the system failed to fulfill the basic need of providing nutrient food, they are still fighting to get the suitable aid from government to fight the issues such as diarrhea, malnutrition, underweight etc.

At anganwadies even we do not have proper system of sitting and sanitation. The food which we distribute is not sufficient to meet the need of all, the salaries of care takers is


not sufficient to carry her house so that they are not passionate enough to serve the society and start to do some alternate work; lack of doctors who are interested to serve the society is again an obstacle, we need more volunteers who can spread awareness amongst the poor ladies to eat healthy food while pregnant, what is the course of action to save the child from malnutrition, diarrhea and other enemies of life of child.

Save Poor Youth

Whether somebody has tried to understand the urban poor who came in cities to earn their livelihood but force to live in dirty tents near heap of litter and dirty blocked water of sewer. The child’s run here and there to support their parents so that they could able to get two time food daily. These children’s untimely start to steal the things, pick-pockets, form group of hooligan, chain snatchers, or dacoits. There is need to understand the rout cause of the problem so that these type of things could be checked. These issues could not be stopped in one day, a comprehensive support from government, public and NGO require fulfilling this dream.

We need to develop the basic infrastructure such as awareness, good habitation, employment, drinking water, elementary education, their rights and their responsibility towards society. Until and unless we make these people aware that they can live a better life along with the other people the purpose of forward movement towards advancement could not be fulfilled.

We may initiate to bring employment opportunities to the young urban who is poor so that they could apply their entire mind towards earning their livelihood, family betterment, education of their children’s and become a good human being. There is need to bring awareness among them that they are part and parcel of this growing India and they are not segregated and segmented.

The purpose of all around inclusion could be fulfilled only by creating the local groups which understand the local needs and fulfill the requirement accordingly. This will help to put better control on the local problems and help it to tackle efficiently and effectively.

Action Plan

  1. To start with the support of Anganwadies to bring more volunteers to make aware the poor community regarding their rights along with make available them the information regarding how to protect their child from the enemies of life.
  2. Create healthy atmosphere, groom their minds, and help them to interact the real India and the world.

  1. Bring all children’s under the umbrella of elementary education at least especially girl child.
  2. To find out the rout cause of not sending their children’s to the school and check the same.
  3. A special education institute for the un-privileged youth such as blind, deaf and having other physical defects.
  4. Create employment opportunities for the young urban youth so that we give them a right path which ultimately will go towards betterment of society. It will help them to improve themselves, their families and Nation as large.
  5. Create a system and enable that to fulfill the basic needs such as education, employment opportunities, medical facilities and handle other issues.
  6. Assist the young poor who have some talent so that they could come forward and could contribute to the Nation with their talent.
  7. Give financial assistance if required so that any body like rickshaw-pulers, street hawkers and other similar people could expand their tiny business needs.

We request all respected Indians to participate and give a hand of support to create the very basic infrastructure so that we could say strongly that we are really growing in two digits. A single person cannot do everything, what is group can do, and a group cannot do everything what an entire society can do. Hence we request all of you to come forward with suggestions how to improve further and how to bring to provide a healthy atmosphere to poor one so that they can also run with this real India. Jai Hind.
