Recently while surfing I read an article about a village lady the story had been hounding me since.It was titled 'Age no bar to Independence : Karupayee .It was a story about a 101 year old granny who was a NREGS worker from Madurai district.Her eldest son is 80 yrs of age .
Hats off to her across the nation there will be very less who could make to this age and still work .This might be a matter of great pride for the lady but isn't it shameful that the society is letting her work what about the youth and what a plight in the same country we see growing beggars in their teens !
We should take pledge to save her and others like her in our society at least now.She should have got food and amenities without toiling in the sun.Is it that expensive a deal ,probably one night at a bar with friends will cost much more than her supplies for a month .
We should give a thought at least !
