Ban Child labour ?

Government has now banned child labor almost completely and thereby has blocked access to their already exiguous aliments. Banning child labor is not going to divert even a meager portion of these children towards schools. Instead it’s going to just push them towards more surreptitious illegal work

Govt could have at least perfected the already dilapidated Universal elementary education program before banning the child labor. Some of my solutions would be

1. Without completely banning child labor in non-hazardous jobs, we could have shifted some of the responsibilities of educating these children to their employers. May be a 4+1+4 hour schedule with 4 hrs for work, 4 hrs for study and a free lunch.

2. Instead of following the age old textbook-classroom teaching, these children could be given more of vocational training in special centers after identifying their inherent skills.
This would make them self-employed (carpenter, electrician, handicrafts, handlooms...) or at least help them in getting employed immediately after their education. The Govt could itself market some of their creations/ products and the profit shared with the children.

With access to education, food and money, children will be inherently attracted towards our vocational centers and our goal of Universal elementary education can be easily achieved.

What next infinity?

We have the distinction of inventing zero but we never cared to think beyond infinity. And now, our friends in West have taught us what actually exactly lies beyond this eternity.

Now, the story!

Some time back, in the West, a college dropout called BG, wanted to know what the hell lies beyond infinity. He had nothing with him to start with but worked hard day by day to accumulate his wealth hoping that one day he would reach infinity and beyond. The more he worked towards infinity he found there is lot more work to be done.

One fine day, he realised that addition and multiplication of his wealth wont work and he started to differentiate and integrate them. He started B&MG foundation, differentiated what ever he had aggregated till now to the needy & poor for them to integrate the wealth individually, so that he can finally aggregate them to infinity.

When he was trying solo to add on his wealth, he had a lot of problems & lawsuits to face every day. But now, he has gone back to nothing after differentiating his wealth and he now finds his popularity integrating day by day. He shared his discovery with one of his close friend WB and even our WB has joined this Diff-Inf band wagon.

So folks, there is nothing beyond infinity and no need to rush towards that. Better start differentiating today.
