...to question why

she needs permission

to answer nature


...to wonder aloud

why 'adults' often

discuss kids' issues

without consulting them


...to inform 'leaders'

that their needs

are critical too


...to remind elders

that they maybe

citizens of tomorrow

but are around now!

Inspired by what I saw and heard from and about the young during the Civil Society Summit 2010, a commemoration and re-examination of 60 years of the Indian Republic and its constitution, held in Bangalore from 24th-26th January.

…Hindus, Muslims, Christians, boys and girls", were the heart warming words of Afreen Sultana, a promising class IX student of a government aided English medium school in Matadahalli, R.T. Nagar. A fornight ago, it all began as a question on the difference between a nest and a cage with Firdaus (of class VII in the Urdu medium government school nearby). This led to the meaning and importance of freedom for all living beings, eliciting interesting responses from Alan, Chetan and Abhinaya (in classes VII, IX and VIII of various government aided English medium schools in North East Bengaluru) on accepted behaviour in public. Fortunately, this resulted in an enjoyable discussion on the interpretation of independence, patriotism, the country, our diverse identities and unity and finally the spontaneous utterance.
