It’s not very long when the whole country was shaken up by one incident- Nithari killings. Nithari- the small so called village in Noida came to the limelight and became famous overnight- all for wrong purposes. All the news channels and the newspapers had only one topic to discuss, only one topic to write about- NITHARI and the brutal murder of its children.
What happened then? A long enquiry still going on against the accused, some compensation declared for the families of the deceased (Whether they got it or not, that is another matter to see into), gradual withdrawal of the media, affected families coming to terms and busy giving blood samples for DNA test to prove that the body parts are of their own kids, the fading memory of the people, the anger and frustration receding from our face, mind and even soul.
The souls of all those children who have been murdered may rest in peace. They have had there share of misery and their destiny took them away from their families. But what about the other children who still have their life to live on? They are panic stricken, they miss their siblings and friends but they do not worry about their future because they do not know one has to. But we do. Yes, we know and understand that our children should get education for a bright future; we work hard to provide a better future to them. We are very busy in ensuring that they get a good life but just take some time to think about these less privileged children, the children of our society- aren’t they our responsibility too? Don’t we get anything from our society that makes us liable to give back something to it? At least our society gives us our identity- We, the Indians! Our India deserves a good future- good future for all its children.

Some people with the same spirit have gathered together and doing what they can do, in their own little ways, to make the lives of the children of Nithari a better one. In a small room, they are running a school to give basic education to these children. They give some time in the evening, after their work is over, and teach these children. They arrange for books for these children. They are in contact with the schools in vicinity to get these children into formal education. They also try to help their families in solving their problems.

We need more “bricklayers”. We need people to join this initiative and help change the future of our children forever. We need You to help in this task in whatever ways you can.
