Have all the school buildings collapsed in an earthquake? Has someone stolen all the footballs and cricket bats? Have the backyards and playgrounds disappeared suddenly? Has anyone put all the storybooks to fire? Has some evil spirit cursed the joy of childhood? If nothing of this sort has happened Then why is that eight years old kid washing glasses at the tea stall?

Lost childhood
Have all the school buildings collapsed in an earthquake? Has someone stolen all the footballs and cricket bats? Have the backyards and playgrounds disappeared suddenly? Has anyone put all the storybooks to fire? Has some evil spirit cursed the joy of childhood? If nothing of this sort has happened Then why is that eight years old kid washing glasses at the tea stall?
