On April 9th, Ratanji referred this case to our group. Poor lady is having 2 daughters. One is LKG and the other is in Class-I. Husband is an auto-driver, takes the auto on daily-rent and spends the money on drinking after paying off the auto-rent. He suggests to pull out the daughters from school as he is not interested to fund them for studies. The mother, being interested in education of the kids, saves whatever she can and sends the kids to school. She walks 5km one-way everyday so that she can save Rs.3 on bus-fare. Ratanji assured her that he will pay her bus-fare every month and she need not walk down. Her concern was the monthly fee, uniform and books for the kids.
One of our US members, Uday Bhaskar, has sent Rs. 1000 for this case. Ratanji's friend, Bharadwaj, contributed Rs. 2000. This case is taken up by SHiFT and supported by TMAD.
