Some so called Dalit activists. Have decided that the immense benefit the village children are getting with #JeevaniMilk, milk and ashwagandhadhi, has to be run down.
As they are not the the saviours here. They are worried that we are seeking limelight.
They cannot imagine worlds where all that is seeked is the good of these children, and no one in this act cares for name or credit. Neither the doctor who anchors it, nor those contributing for the children, nor those running it on the ground.
After a lot of personal abuse, they are now targetting the scheme directly.
Saying that we are 'experimenting with ayurveda'.
That we are 'experimenting with Dalit children'.
And of course in places where other communities of poor children are getting the milk and ashwagandhadhi, we will be told that we favour other communities over the Dalit children.
That every child touched by this has benefitted immeasurably. That these malnourished children who used fo fall ill thrice a month stay well through the year, without a single illness. That seeing the results village after village has been requesting this for their children. That every teacher in each school has attested to the well being of her/ his children. In writing. Carries little water for them.
These self serving 'liberators of the dalits', henchmen of corporate interests, caught in the imperialistic, capitalist agenda, with their own personal fame high in the agenda.
Will scuttle any scheme that does not serve them personally.
The poor be damned.

Share these details for the following reasons
1. To spread awareness about the benifits of ashwagandha and milk, so it encourages more people to take up the cause for children around them.
2. Don’t get carried away when organisations come and hurtle accusations . They have the money and resources to spread malice but good people do not have the time , money , resource or even simply understand how someone can spin negativity when there are only good intentions and actions at play.

One joyful news ...
I got a message from a friend I wasnt in touch with for awhile.
That he wanted to tell me that he had been giving milk and Ashwagandhadhi to 50 children in a colony his maid lived in. Since the last seven months.
That the children of the slum were now alert, well and in good health.
The beauty is in the simplicity. He gets 12 litres of milk daily and boils it. One day he goes, one day his wife, one day his small son, the other days the maid. The children from the slum come daily to carry the milk down.
In this country, parents watch their children stay underfed. A greater sadness a parent cannot know.
Cry, the beloved country
