Daughters of Bihar

Congrats to the writer ! It is a shame to all Indians who are wealthy and talk of social work sitting in AC rooms and luxury suites. It is time for all Indians to rise and bring a revolution and change the face of India. I believe in Charity begins at home, so we can all start in our own small ways by being good to each other , to our daughters mothers sisters and wives and then in turn to all women in general.Back in India we can start in small ways like helping our helpers(what we call maid servants)...educate her, tell her of moral principles values and encourage her to be literate and send her daughters to school. Maybe we can forgo buying an expensive dress and give that money to a pregnant poor mother for milk and good food.The list is endless......
No matter what we say we know everything...sometimes we need eyeopener articles like this........

its a good thing, but educating the people does not start from rich people. Rich people spend the time and energy on their children, which is not wrong at all, and people do donate to the church or temple.

the church and the temple should help in education people in their locality
BUT it is the governments job to educate its masses like any other nation building job, rich people pay tax for that.
