It was quite appalling to see the attached photograph in today's TOI Chennai . On one hand TOI has created a pioneering effort towards the cause of Education, specially school children from the underprivelaged society through its Teach India Movement. And suddenly this photograph was a stark reminder of reality. And what was more shocking was the fact that TNCA, BCCI encourage such child labour ? One side we witness crores of rupees being spent on cricket, cricketers, their security etc but there exists no security of education for that small kid who is wiping away the dust in the chairs .... Did not one cricketer from our national team have the heart to point this out ? Did not one single official point this out ? Its really a shame on us. The kid must be at school writing alphabets or reading but we have become so inhumane that all these have become a part of our life and we all shamelessly learn to live with it.We need no external terrorists to create havoc and misery as we are already engulfed in a terrorism of inhumaness, sarcasm and hypocrisy.
TNCA, BCCI should be definately taken to task for this and we should see that this is not repeated across any sports in India.

Rightly said Anbu!
If possible please do write a letter to BCCI, because our BCCI committee people would be really thinking of improving the quality of players and the playgrounds alone.
