"Why had you been called in the office?" "It was nothing." "It was about exemption for the reservation category." "What does that mean?" "I'm a student in the reservation category." "That is why I get a rebate in the fees." "Even my seat is in the reservation category." "That means competition is even lesser." "That's great, friend." "Congratulations!" "Thanks but no thanks." "I refused to accept it." "Why?" "Why?" "We have enough money." "I don't mind paying fees." "The college and coaching class that you study in.." "..I study there too."

"Look Navneet, I think the actual problem is something else." "Tell me, we may find a solution to it." "Sir, I'm scared of physics, chemistry and maths." "What do you aspire to become?" "I want to be a writer, sir." "That's really nice." "That is a good thing." "But then you should opt for literature." "I know sir.." "..but my father doesn't allow me to." "Tell your father that I asked you to take up arts." "Then he'll agree." "Is that ok?" "Now come on." "Give me a smile." "Good." "Papa." "Papa, my physics lecturer says that I'm better off in arts." "Papa, let me leave my engineering coaching class.." "..so that I can concentrate on my 11th grade exams." "Any request you put forward before me is futile.." "..and you better do what you are told!" "What could be worse!" "He was never good." "Mother, I'm leaving for school." "Bye!" "Sister!" "Pinki." "Pinki, come on." "Its time for school." "I won't go." "Why not?" "I won't go to school." "Let her be if she doesn't want to go to school." "How old is she though?" "2 and a half." "She's very young." "Why are you harassing her?" "I have to get her admitted in a nursery next year." "These days, for admission into good schools.." "..many tests have to be passed." "If I don't send her now, how will she get used to it?" "Yes but if you force her like this she won't be able to study." "She will hate studying." "I can't explain it to you." "Come on, Pinki." "Come quickly. -l won't go, mother." "Mother, this lady is.." "Can't she teach Pinki even though she is well educated?" "What can we do?" "Hello." "Hi." "What is it?" "You have no comments today." "Alright, I'll do it." "You look terrible." "What?" "I'm kidding." "Actually, you look very sexy." "Look, my mood is very bad." "Leave me alone please!" "How can I just leave you alone?" "I am standing next to you, you will feel better." "You have no brains, right?" "You don't know how to talk to me?" "Just don't talk to me!" "Hey buddy." "Why are you lost?" "Why were you arguing like that?" "Its nothing, friend." "Vaishnavi scolded me for no reason." "You know her!" "She says anything when she is angry." "Isn't it?" "Forget it." "Let's go to the canteen." "Go on." "I'll get the others." "Ok." "Hi." "Hi." "Are you going to the canteen?" "Come on." "Sit." "I'll get tea." "Do you want to eat something?" "No." "Just tea." "Thank you." "I heard that you are a bit off-mood today." "Who dared to spoil your mood?" "It's nothing." "Will you tell me or should I hit you?" "You saw Pinki in my party, right?" "Yes." "That small kid, right?" "Yes." "Her mother wants to send her to a play-school by force." "She needs a playground and not a play-school." "Why don't parents understand kids?" "That is because they don't want to understand." "They think that they know everything about the world." "We don't know anything at all!" "Some are like my parents." "For their prestige, they force their kids." "Oh God!" "Explain it to these parents." "Even God can't explain it." "That is the reason why he is quiet." "I want to be a painter.." "..and my father is adamant about making me an engineer." "My case is different." "I want to be an engineer.." "..but my father wants me to become a doctor.." "..so that I can handle his clinic." "Friend, this boy is poor in biology." "How will he get a seat then?" "There is a management quota." "Don't get us killed." "I'll never come to you for medication." "Nor will we!" "That is true." "Without calibre and interest.." "..a professional course like medicine shouldn't be attempted." "Forget about their problems.." "..people's lives are at a risk due to that." "There is another problem due to that." "What is that?" "In medical colleges, these days.." "..a management quota seat is worth 25 lakhs." "By the time the course is over more than 50 lakhs are spent." "It is obvious that for getting back that huge amount.." "..doctors charge enormous fees." "For a headache, thousands of rupees are spent." "Whether a person survives in this system or not.." "..but he becomes like a living corpse." "What's the use of thinking over.." "..something we can't change?" "Shall we leave now?" "Son.." "Mother!" "I sat with Varun, Nitin and Bharat.." "..and solved 30 to 40 problems such as this." "But when I do it by myself I can't solve a single one." "Mummy, please help me." "Son, at least try it." "You'll do it." "I can't do it, mother." "I'm not getting any solutions." "Please help me, mother." "Sit." "You'll do it." "Was that you?" "I don't see Navneet around." "I don't know." "I have been looking for him since a long time too." "I haven't seen him yet." "I don't understand." "There!" "It has been two hours since the exams ended." "He has been searching for you there and you're standing here!" "Anyway, how was the exam?" "I didn't give the exams well." "If I fail, my father will kill me!" "It will be nothing like that." "'You'll get very good marks.' I won't say that." "You will pass though." "Don't worry, pal." "Everything will be alright." "Come." "Come along." "Don't look at a sleeping child like that." "It may cast an evil eye." "When he is awake, I don't get to see him like this." "College, coaching classes followed by a lot of homework!" "You are right." "Kids today can't even live their childhood properly." "They don't have time to play or to sleep." "What can be done?" "The system is like that." "We have to go with the others." "Students, the class is over." "Shut down your computers." "Come on, hurry up." "What are you doing?" "Hurry up please." "What are you doing with Vaishnavi's bag?" "What do you have to do with that?" "Many things go on between Vaishnavi and me." "Look, I am Vaishnavi's best friend." "So I have a right to know this." "You are Vaishnavi's best friend?" "Come on." "I'll prove it right now." "Come!" "Come on." "Vaishnavi, I am your best friend, right?" "Yes, why?" "Explain it to him." "He was putting some paper into your bag." "Paper?" "Look in his hands." "Here's your 50 rupees." "As you promised me, don't tell this to anyone please." "What was that?" "During a physics lecture.." "..the professor Sgave a problem from HC." "Varma's book." "He didn't understand that problem." "So I explained it to him." "So?" "So what?" "Prakash is the classes' topper." "If someone would know this in the class.." "..he would lose his prestige, right?" "Our corrupt Vaishnavi, for hiding this.." "..must have asked for 50 rupees." "Isn't it?" "You cheater!" "What's my fault in this?" "It is your mistake." "Why did you get caught by Abhinav?" "Navneet, your father has come." "He's sitting in the office room." "The principal has called for you." "Go on." "Navneet, I think you should take arts.." "..because you really incline towards it and.." "Excuse me!" "How can you decide that?" "I totally understand, sir." "You don't try to realise Navneet will benefit through this." "Look at his mid-term marks." "His marks are pretty good." "Look at the physics.." "..chemistry and maths marks." "I understand what the problem is." "Sir, give me one more chance." "Its not that, sir.." "Thank you for your help!" "Come on, boy." "Lets go." "Listen, you may fool your principal and teacher.." "..but I am not an idiot." "I know very well what your plan is." "Come on home." "I'll see you!" "Search for it." "I'll look too." "Search for it." "I'll look too." "The nights that I have lost." "The forgotten event." "What more can I tell you?" "Search for it." "I'll look too." "Search for it." "I'll look too." "The sleep that I lost." "My memory that is gone." "What more can I tell you?" "I will slowly disappear." "I'll sorrowfully be lost in the moment." "Search for it." "I'll look too." "Whenever I was close, you were with me." "Whenever I stayed away, you were still with me." "Now the world that I have left to seek." "There is no one with me." "I will leave silently." "I looked and searched everywhere." "Everywhere the only thing I found was.." "Sir!" "Sir!" "Navneet has fallen sir." "A lot of blood has flown away, sir." "Come on!" "I'm sorry." "He's no more." "Sir!" "Doctor!" "Doctor!" "No!" "Doctor!" "Doctor!" "It was a silent evening." "There were no dreams." "It was a silent evening." "There were no dreams." "I never could express that condition." "What more can I tell you?" "Search for it." "I'll look too." "Search for it." "I'll look too." "Yesterday 13 days passed since his death." "If Navneet's father hadn't put too much pressure on him.." "..he would never have committed suicide." "If the cause of Navneet's suicide is his father.." "..why doesn't the police arrest him?" "Why don't you talk to your young uncle regarding this?" "She won't go alone." "We'll all go and talk to him." "Yes." "That will be right." "Let's do that then." "We'll go today in the evening and meet Mr. Sanjay." "Alright." "Ok." "What is it?" "The entire gang is in my office today." "You appear to be one short." "What is it?" "Tell me something." "Navneet's father killed him." "What?" "The day we were getting our term exams' results.." "..the principal called for Navneet's father." "I don't know what happened inside.." "..but when Navneet came out, he was very scared." "His father's face showed anger too." "He even threatened him saying.." "'Come home, I'll see you.'" "I told them about this too." "We were going to go to him when.." "He jumped off the school terrace and committed suicide." "Uncle, another Navneet mustn't die." "That is the only salute we want to give our friend." "We are ready to do anything for this." "Show us the way now." "Come on." "Hello inspector." "There was a St. Joseph college student's.." "..suicide case." "May I see its fir?" "Who are you?" "I'm advocate Sanjay." "Why didn't you write the reason for Navneet's suicide in this?" "Sir, look carefully." "He had low marks in his exams." "He was depressed." "That is why he committed suicide." "I want to correct you a little, inspector." "How his dad would beat him up for getting low marks.." "..thinking this, he committed suicide." "Look, parents do hit their children." "However, their intention is never wrong." "We cannot accuse him in this case." "Even spouses fight but if the husband's oppression.." "..goes beyond a limit, we have a case against him, right?" "Tell me." "That's a different case." "A wife would accuse her husband there." "That is why we take action." "But in this case.." "..no one has laid an accusation." "He lays an accusation." "Yes sir." "Navneet's father scolded him a lot that day." "He said.." "'Come home, I'll see you.'" "Navneet was very scared to hear this." "I was there too." "Will you be able to say all this in the court?" "Surely." "Ok." "Mr. Sanjay will act as private counsel for the complainants." "But he will act under the guidance of.." "..the public prosecutor." "Thank you, your honour." "He played a major part in killing his son." "That is why I request the court to punish him.." "..so that no other parent.." "..would not pressurise their kids like this.." "..and they may get a right to live their life." "Your honour, I think this is a open and shut case." "Every parent loves his child." "Whatever they do, it will be for their kids' well-being." "You are 100 percent right." "Can you do something for me?" "What?" "Fold them one after the other and show me.." "..how much you can bend them." "What?" "Please." "What do you want to prove through this?" "Your honour, I think the advocate is a believer not of evidence.." "..but of such tomfoolery." "I'm sorry I cannot do that." "Can I have the court clerk do this?" "Ok." "Your honour.." "..you saw that they both have limits." "When plastic was bended more than its capacity, it broke." "That is why we use things according to their capacity." "You must have noticed that whenever we use a glass material.." "..we automatically say.." "'Be careful!" "Careful, brother." "Its glass.'" "Your honour, our kids are more fragile than glass." "We should handle them with care." "This man!" "This man didn't handle his son with care and he died." "We are fighting this case.." "..so that it doesn't happen with any other kid." "Your honour, these days even if parents refuse.." "..kids from watching movies, they try to commit suicide." "Objection, your honour!" "These things have nothing to do with this case." "Objection sustained." "But I would like to request my friend advocate to.." "..prove the pointless accusations made against my client." "In a court, justice is granted by evidence not by speeches." "My first witness is inspector Manoj." "Will you tell the court what happened on November 10?" "Sir, on November 10 in the morning.." "..the principal of St. Joseph's college called me." "He said that a kid has fallen off the roof." "Come immediately. I reached there soon." "What did you see there?" "When I reached there I saw that a child was drenched in blood." "A doctor was checking his pulse.." "..and later the doctor pronounced him dead." "What did you do?" "I did my usual enquiry." "I found out that he had no enemy." "He didn't fight with anyone either." "What kind of a boy was Navneet in your enquiry?" "According to my enquiry, he was a boy of a very gentle nature." "Everyone in the college loved him a lot." "Please note this point, your honour." "How did he die?" "Look, he went to the roof alone." "He jumped from there and committed suicide." "What reason did you state in the normal fir?" "He didn't get good marks in term exams." "He was quite depressed." "How did you file a charge-sheet on Mr.Manjeet Singh's name then?" "Inspector, you are under oath." "Tell me the truth." "Objection, your honour." "He is scaring the witness." "No, your honour." "I am reminding him his responsibility." "Objection over-ruled." "Inspector, please give details." "Yes, your honour." "Students of St. Joseph college came with him to me." "They accused Mr. Singh." "They said that.." "..it was due to his father that Navneet committed suicide." "Why didn't you carry out an enquiry and.." "..file a charge-sheet against him then?" "Well, I.." "I mean.." "I took it casually. - Why did you do that?" "I'm sorry to say this but.." "..this situation goes on in 60 percent of our country's houses." "Till today no one has taken it as a criminal act." "Thank you." "Your witness please." "Inspector, do you remember the section 306 of the constitution?" "Yes sir." "According to the penal code, if anyone commits suicide.." "..and whoever abets the commission of such suicide.." "..shall be punished with imprisonment of either.." "..description of a term which may extend up to 10 years.." "..or shall also be liable to fine." "Good." "So, my client Mr. Singh." "Is he guilty of crime under this section?" "No, sir." "A person is guilty under this act.." "..only when he on purpose forces someone to commit suicide." "In this case, however, Mr. Singh doesn't have this intention." "That's all your honour." "A person who isn't a criminal under the Indian Penal Code.." "We don't have any right to file a case against him." "No, your honour." "Look at this." "Many kids today.." "..are committing suicide due to this problem." "This is evidence number one, sir." "Parents today have become over-ambitious." "They demand more than the possible limit from their kids." "They want to have their kids top the class." "That is the reason why there is extra pressure on their minds." "All of this proves that." "The law has been made for our benefit and assistance." "That is why we have made many amendments in the constitution." "Now it has become a social case." "We will begin it from here." "The case is accepted." "The court is adjourned for today." "Oh my dear child." "Oh my dear child." "Oh my dear child." "You will eat food derived from fresh crops." "You will eat food derived from fresh crops." "Now be happy and sleep." "Now be happy and sleep." "Now be happy and sleep." "Oh my dear child." "Sleep doesn't know when to come." "We will have to inform it that it has to come now." "We don't know when it may come." "The lullaby has been lost in a night." "Oh my dear child." "Listen to me, my dear child." "Close your eyes with love." "It will come." "Oh my dear child." "Oh my dear child." "You will eat food derived from fresh crops." "You will eat food derived from fresh crops." "Now be happy and sleep." "Now be happy and sleep." "The evening is coming to an end." "The moon has risen in the sky." "The fog took its view away." "O moon, what mistake did I make?" "Now tell me whether you will ever see me." "Oh my dear child." "Listen to me, my dear child." "Close your eyes with love." "It will come." "Oh my dear child." "Oh my dear child." "You will eat food derived from fresh crops." "You will eat food derived from fresh crops." "Now be happy and sleep." "Now be happy and sleep." "Now be happy and sleep." "Oh my dear child." "Aunt.." "..if by filing a case against uncle.." "..we have increased your sorrow, we will take back the case." "No, son." "Whatever you are doing is right." "At least a helpless mother like me wouldn't.." "..have to lose her child in future." "Mr. Mishra, you are under oath." "Yes sir." "What work do you do?" "I teach physics in St. Joseph college." "For how many years have you been teaching now?" "10 years." "With your experience, you can understand children." "Yes sir." "Navneet was your student." "Yes sir." "Was Navneet suitable to study science?" "Objection your honour!" "This is a leading question." "Objection sustained." "Alright, I'll ask this question differently." "What opinion do you have about Navneet?" "The boy was decent." "He was hard-working too but he wasn't suitable for science." "On what basis do you say this?" "He had 90 percent marks in English and he failed sciences." "Please note this point your honour." "Did you tell his father about this?" "Yes sir." "What was his reaction?" "He controlled his anger.." "..and requested for another chance." "Why do you think Navneet committed suicide?" "Objection your honour!" "Objection sustained." "No more questions, your honour." "Your witness please." "Thank you." "Mr. Mishra, I don't want to ask you many questions.." "..and waste yours and well as the court's time." "I just have some doubts to be cleared." "You can tell everything about kids by your 10 year experience." "You just now said this in the courtroom." "Yes sir." "In my experience of 12 years, whichever client came before me.." "..whether he is guilty or innocent.." "..I could never understand this." "I always left this decision to the court." "Anyway, just tell me, from when have you known Navneet?" "About six months." "Just six months?" "Yes sir." "His age must be around 16-17 years." "That's right sir." "You mean to say a person who nurtured a child for 16-17 years.." "You understood the same boy in about six months." "Graduation is completed in three years." "You think a person who graduates in 13 years.." "That is because he has more experience." "What should I do about this?" "Order!" "Order!" "No more questions please." "Your honour, I request to pass summons.." "..to bring Navneet's mother and brother to court." "Your honour, due to Navneet's death his mother and brother.." "..are mentally disturbed." "This is their medical certificate." "The court is adjourned for today." "Sir, will we win the case?" " Don't you have faith in me?" "What we mean is that,.." "..after this will someone take steps like what Navneet did?" "Will the parents put pressure on their children?" "Will the parents let their children live as they wish?" "Your intentions are good." "But to bring about such a drastic change.." "..a movement has to be brought about." "What should we do for that?" "Does any of your parents.." "..put a lot of pressure on you?" "My parents put a lot of pressure on me to come first.." "..that it becomes difficult to bear it." "Even if I come second or third still I am punished at home." "Have you finished your home work?" "Yes mama." "What about the home work from the coaching class?" "Mama, can I sleep?" "I have to reach college at 7 in the morning and.." "..it is already 12 now." "The condition of my friend in still worse." "Doctor, is it something serious?" "No." "There is nothing to be scared." "Due to the pressure of studies she is feeling hot inside.." "..hence the bleeding is a little more." "A lot of children these days face this problem." "All of you file a case against your parents." "Then I will file a PlL." "Tell all the children at the college to the same." "This in itself will become a big movement." "Meena.." "Get these papers typed and.." "..the get the signature of these children." "Go." "Buddy I am finding the preparing for engineering very hard." "I'm thinking of running away from the house." "But why are you running away from your house?" "You too file a case." "Can we also file a case?" "Yes." "But I don't have the money." "That wouldn't be necessary." "You come with us." "Mr. Sanjay will fight your case too." "Me too!" "Me too!" " Me too!" "Me too!" "Me too!" "Me too!" " Me too!" "Me too!" "Sir, all these people also want to file a case." "Oh!" "All these." "Take them to Meena." "Yes sir." "Uncle, these people also want to file a case." "Good!" "Go to Meena." "Good morning sir." "Good morning sir." "Good morning." "You're supporting these children well." "I am only doing my duty." "Any comments about these children?" "Not only these children.." "Every child in this generation knows what it wants." "If we can recognise that and.." "..help them correctly they can do wonders." "Why did you take up this case?" "Did something like this happen in your life too?" "It is not necessary that something should have happened.." "..in your life to help someone." "Yes sir." "To make out the pain that someone is suffering.." "..all you need is a good heart." "We can appreciate the case against the parents." "But.." "..against the government.." "Wait and watch." "Sir." "Excuse me sir." "Sir, one more question." "Sir!" "As we have already informed our viewers.." "..on 1st November, a student of St. Joseph college.." "..Navneet had committed suicide." "As an outcome of the suicide of Navneet.." "..there is a case filed against his father in the court." "But now we have received the news that.." "..friends of Navneet have also filed case.." "..against their parents in the high court." "Further other friends of his have also.." "..filed against the government.." "..a Public Interest Litigation petition." "When our correspondents asked them about this.." "..what they said let us hear it from them itself." "Yes Rahul, I am standing in front of Allahabad high court.." "..where in the history of India for the first time children.." "..have filed case against their parents." "And also against the government too." "What was the reason that made these children.." "..go to court against their parents?" "What is that they want, come let us ask them." "We hear that you've.." "..filed case against your parents." "Yes we have." "You've filed PlL against the Govt., am I right?" "Yes, you're right, we have filed." "What do you want to achieve by doing this?" "What do you want to tell our viewers?" "Excuse me." "Excuse me." "Tell us." "Someone, please tell us." "Tell us." "Someone, please tell us." "It's my life; why should I be scared of someone?" "I love history, then why should I study mathematics?"

"He is earning, and has sent money from there." "That's how he has bought a new house" "Do I keep saying it to Dheeraj just like that?" "That's why I tell him day and night to do study engineering." "That too top in it." "You must be seeing the competition." "See who it is." "Okay, I'll see." "Yes." "Mr and Mrs Chopra." "What is this?" "Mr." "Jha this is summons from the court." "Court summons?"

"Sanjay will surely bring up this point in the court." "And because of this point the public will feel.." "..that we are not thinking about the welfare of the public." "We will tell the opposition camp has instigated Sanjay." "He always does like this." "My god!" "You will tell this to the media and.." "..spoil the image of our govt?" "Look.."

"Never mind, I'll teach after the court is over." "In the matter of bills you seem to have forgotten one bill." "What bill?" "Your bill." "You take fees for fighting a case." "Can you assure them that you'll win the case?" "What nonsense are you talking?" "There is no relation between these matters and the case." "There is a connection, my lord." "There is a connection." "Lawyer takes fees for fighting a case." "If he loses then what?" "Like that the parents sent their children.." "..to school for studies." "The child on its part works hard." "Gets 4th, 7th or 10th rank." "But he gets punished for not getting 1st rank." "How is that justified?" "My lord, I wish to call my youngest.." "..client and witness, Chutki." "Permission granted." "Chutki." "Dear, what is your name?" "Chutki." "Chutki." "In the house my parents, my brother and.." "..my uncles and aunts all call me Chutki." "In the school?" "Dharni." "Which class are you in?" "Second class." "Do you like studies?" "I like it." "In English and math I stood first in the class." "But in ES, Gk and Hindi I don't rank first in the class." "You can ask the questions." "Do you always want to come first?" "No." "That mummy wants." "If I don't come first mummy gets angry." "Oh!" "And your papa?" "Papa too." "My lord I wish to call Chutki's parents to the witness box." "Permission granted." "My lord, I also wish to ask some questions to this child." "She is not a grown up child."

"No." "Your designation." "Assistant manager." "What is the topmost designation in your company and.." "..will you reach that position before you retire?" "Objection my lord." "This question has no relevance to this case." "My lord this is an important question." "I will prove that it has relevance." "Objection over ruled." "Answer this question." "The highest position is that of a director." "I can at best become a Sr. Manager." "Does your wife know that?" "Yes, she knows." "Tell me something." "Your wife, whether in the role of a wife.." "..or in the role of a mother or as a good cook." "Which is she best in?" "She is average in everything." "Great!" "You're average, your wife is average.." "..the child in the class between 1 and 5 above average." "If she doesn't come first.." "..punishing her, is it justified?" "Order." "Order." "Madam." "Madam, at least you tell us.." "Since we couldn't so.." "..we expect that our children stand first." "Please note this point, my lord." "I want to call Mr  Mrs Ketan Chopra." "My lord, in this particular case.." "..I wish to first call Dheeraj to the witness box." "Permission granted." "Dheeraj, while filing the case against your parents.." "..the reason you've written is that.." "..your parents compare you to their friend's children.." "..and pressurise you." "The things that your friends have, you also want them.." "..have you ever insisted so with your parents?" "I did but.." "Answer in yes or no." "Don't answer questions that I didn't ask you." "Sir." "I want to say something to you." "Tell me." "My parents wanted to buy a bike for me." "All my friends have cycles." "If I had a bike then I can't move with them." "That's why I didn't ask for anything that they can't get me." "Ask them, did I ask for Mercedes Benz?" "Order." "Order."

"After that I come home and then.." "Okay." "You roam around with your friends.." "..play computer games and listen to songs.." "Basically you waste your valuable time." "Sir, this is our age to play and have fun." "If I spent some time with my friends, what's wrong?" "Court is adjourned." "The rest of the proceedings will continue tomorrow." "You were great today." "You made the defense lawyer speechless." "Brother was I not good?" "You're our heroine." "Uncle will we win?" "When there are so many people with us.." "..then we must surely win." "Come." "What do you feel?" "After this case the children will not respect their parents?" "No, I don't feel so." "I feel that because of this case the relationship.." "..of the child and the parents will become stronger." "We borrow money and get our children educated in big schools." "These useless ones are filing case against us." "We pay the EMl against the loan regularly." "But I feel we should spend some.." "..installments of our time on our children." "Mr. Sanjay as you told us.." "..the objective of both the cases.." "..children vs parents, children vs govt. are inter related." "Hence we shall discuss children vs government today." "Ys my lord." "Ms Nandita you must also have been briefed about this." "Yes my lord." "Start the proceedings." "My lord, PlL is only.." "..for fundamental rights and.." "..this case.." "..is not covered by fundamental rights." "My lord." "Under article 45.." "..women and children come under directive principle." "In the case of RA Ravi similar PlL was filed.." "..and the supreme court gave a ruling on that." "I request.." "..that this case also should be treated in the same way." "Permission granted." "Thank you my lord." "My lord, if the parents put the pressure of education.." "..on their children then that's their.." "..it is their family matter." "Their.." "This is a personal matter and hence.." "..the government cant interfere." "Milord." "Some parents have child-marriage done." "I know that.." "..whatever parents do, it is for their children's good." "If child-marriage is done for the child's good.." "..will we support them?" "I object Milord." "Child-marriage is illegal." "Who made that law?" "The government did." "As you said child-marriage.." "..is their personal matter for them." "Why is the government intruding then?" "Milord, we all know that child marriage is a social crime.." "..and blocks progress and hence.." "That is why the government has stopped it." "Please!" "Please note this point, Milord." "Please note this point." "Milord, is advocate Sanjay trying to say that.." "..giving parental guidance to children to make a better.." "..future is a social evil?" "Therefore the government needs to step in and take a stand?" "Well, I would think not." "Milord, it is a well established law.." "..that children till the time they remain minors.." "..need the care and protection of a parent or a guardian." "On the very basic premise that they are not capable of.." "..making sound decisions." "I think advocate Sanjay is trying to overturn.." "..this fundamental tenate of law." "Milord, she is absolutely right." "Parents and guardians must show the path." "This is not the way!" "Its forcing and pressurizing." "To prove this.." "..I would like to call Dr.Rajesh Shrivastav to the witness box." "Permission granted." "Doctor, you are a child psychiatrist." "That's right, sir." "For the record, I am a child psychiatrist, Dr. Shrivastav." "Tell me, these days.." "..how parents treat their children these days." "Today's parents dont understand their children's problems." "Some parents.." "..just talk to kids about their school.." "..studies, examination or.." "..or the marks derived from them." "They think that.." "..getting a laptop for them.." "..or buying them expensive books.." "..would end their responsibility." "Well, that is wrong." "I think that.." "..parents should.." "Taking some time off thier busy lives everyday.." "..they must talk to thier kids and understand their problems." "In fact, I.." "..would like to warn parents that.." "..threatening or scaring them with consequences.." "..such as failure and such likes." "Creating such fear.." "..that if they dont beat the competetion.." "..their future is very.." "..will be dark." "All this.." "..into kids' minds, their brains.." "..it creates stress hormones." "Their emotional balance.." "Their emotional balance goes haywire." "So, parents have to be extremely careful." "You think this kids rebellion is right or wrong?" "Objection Milord." "This is a leading question." "Sorry." "I withdraw my question." "Your witness." "Thank you." "Dr. Shrivastav.." "Do you believe that.." "..all kids are decent like a holy boy and all parents.." "..are wretched like villains?" "No." "I believe that today's mothers have no understanding." "They dont understand thier sons." "Thank you." "Well.." "I completely agree to what you said." "If parents understand their kids a bit more this.." "..will be rid off." "That's right." "But I would maintain, Milord." "The government cannot interfere in this case." "I dont agree with this madam." "I know that until.." "..in government schools.." "..education's standard.." "..doesnt improve, this problem cannot be solved." "Dr. Shrivastav, I assume that.." "..you are a psychiatrist and not into education." "The discussion here is not about the.." "..government's educational policies but.." "..on parents and thier kids.." "..putting pressure and high expectations causing.." "..them to break limits sometimes." "Yes but these increased expectations or pressure.." "..are caused by government policies too." "Milord." "I do not agree with that." "Well, Milord." "Let me explain." "I believe that many parents.." "They dont trust government schools.." "..whether they are primary or secondary levels of education.." "..they dont trust it." "The dont trust the quality of education and hence.." "..inspite of high cost.." "..they send their children to private schools." "They are spending a lot of money." "Naturally, their expectations rise too." "Milord." "What course and duration of study.." "..the government cant monitor this." "If parents pressurise kids to study and.." "..have expectations from them, it is certainly bad but.." "The government cant do anything about this." "Milord." "I dont agree with the state lawyer." "To prove my quote.." "..I'd like to call upon Mr. Jha into the witness box." "Permission granted." "Mr. Jha, I.." "What does your son Gaurav do?" "He's studying +2 from St. Joseph college." "What subjects does he have?" "Science." "Alongwith +2, I think.." "..he is also getting prepared for lit's entrance exams." "People take science only for medicine, engineering and llTs." "Tell me something, other than this.." "..he cant do anything else?" "What else will he do?" "He'll get a good job through this at the least." "He'll earn some money." "Note this point, Milord." "Many parents in India think.." "..that medicine, engineering, las.." "No other job is worthwhile beyond this." "If a boy joins the las.." "..his respect in the society increases." "Therefore there is immense competetion." "Last year, for 4500 seats.." "..300000 students gave lit's exam." "There is highly tough competetion." "That is why, parents are pressurising children." "The court is adjourned." "Further proceedings will be carried on tomorrow." "Come, lets bring the moon to earth today." "Lets bank a river that is overflowing." "The questions that have arisen.." "we will find answers to them." "We will ask for an account." "We will bring parity." "Why be afraid?" "Come, lets bring the moon to earth today." "Lets bank a river that is overflowing." "They say that there is no life and insult the ill ones." "We ask them to come and discuss it." "They say that it is worthless." "It is a waste of time." "We ask them to check it over." "We realise this and dont want a war." "But we dont want destruction too." "Our life is education." "Isnt that right?" "Come, lets bring the moon to earth today." "Lets bank a river that is overflowing." "The questions that have arisen.." "we will find answers to them." "We will ask for an account." "We will bring parity." "Why be afraid?" "Come, lets bring the moon to earth today." "Lets bank a river that is overflowing." "The earth that we trust and belive in." "At least lay a base for that ground today." "Some other people will come on this land sometime." "They must be able to survive this." "Prepare it for that." "We realise this and dont want a war." "But we dont want destruction too." "Education should be easy." "Isnt that right?" "Come, lets bring the moon to earth today." "Lets bank a river that is overflowing." "The questions that have arisen.." "we will find answers to them." "We will ask for an account." "We will bring parity." "Why be afraid?" "Come, lets bring the moon to earth today." "Lets bank a river that is overflowing." "Lets go." "Lets go." "Lets go." "Lets go." "Lets go." "Lets go." "Lets go." "Lets go." "Lets go." "Lets go." "Lets go." "Lets go!" "Why would a child accuse his parent?" "He gets milk from containers and education from the government." "Once, a squirrel came under Lord Ram's feet." "Even though it was under tremendous pain.." "..the squirrel didnt complain." "Lord Ram asked it.." "..why it didnt tell him." "The squirrel said.." "..whenever I was in pain, I took the name of Ram." "But whose name do I take if Ram is hurting me?" "Whenever children undergo pain, they go to their parents." "But if parents cause pain.." "..where will the kids go then." "Every child in this country.." "..is a pillar of tomorrow's world." "Our nations future depends on them." "If the pillars arent strong, how will our country be strong?" "This question isnt by these kids." "It isnt of thier parents." "It is not by the Indian government." "The question is about India's future." "You are making a mistake." "You think about the future.." "..and lose the present." "Let the kids live thier childhood." "Dont snatch their childhood from them." "Dont make them old at a young age." "Walk with them.." "..and help them to fulfil their good dreams and aspirations." "It isnt necessary that.." "..children must do what parents want." "You are just like them then." "Remember." "Every person decides his own fate." "If we all understand their dreams and pain.." "..there wont be any more of Navneet-like cases." "No more parent will lose their child." "Walk the generation and there wont be any gap." "Be their guide and not a dictator." "I want to clarify this here that this only applies to kids.." "..who work hard but their parents.." "..cannot understand their hard-work and aim." "It doesnt apply to kids who are stubborn.." "..and dont focus on their careers." "The government of India must first.." "..sponsor education till 18 years.." "..and have it as a fundamental right." "Kids must be put into school only a year before the first grade." "Not two years as it s happening now." "The second thing." "Kids and their parents must.." "..undergo career counselling in every school and college." "This career counselling can be of two types." "Firstly." "What the kids can do." "Secondly." "All the courses that are available." "The nation can progress in every way only when.." "..the child.." "..whatever he likes, he studies.." "..and have better chances of getting a job according to that." "I would advise the Indian government.." "..to appoint any NGO for this." "A budget of 100 crores must be sanctioned for this," "I want.." "..the Indian government to follow this soon." "Manjeet Singh's case has to be decided." "Milord." "We want to say something." "Come to the witness box and tell me." "Milord." "We didnt file this case to punish uncle." "Your honour." "I must be punished, your honour." "I am guilty." "I pressurised my child.." "..and forced him to commit suicide, your honour." "Punish me." "Punish me, your honour." "So that no parent in future.." "..on their innocent kids' minds.." "..lays force." "Instead kids must.." "..kept like flowers.." "..and nurtured with love." "Not by using force as in my case." "Today I am.." "..before all the kids here today.." "..extremely sorry." "I ask for their forgiveness." "I'm sorry." "Milord." "We wish to take back our case." "Yes, Milord." "A person who has lost his son.." "..cannot have a bigger punishment." "His only mistake is that.." "..he forced his dreams on his son." "Forgive him." "We want this to be taken up in the parliament." "It should be debated in the parliament." "We cannot bring Navneet back." "At least we can give his brother his father back." "I hope that after today.." "..children and parents have better understanding.." "..between themselves." "The case is closed and the court is adjourned." "The day has come which was awaited not only.." "..by the nation but worldwide too." "Justice Bharat Kumar made another rightful decision.." "..and increased public confidence in the law." "Justice Bharat Kumar in his ruling.." "..didnt just make people realise about their short-comings.." "..but also the gap.." "..that was created between kids and parents.." "It can be hoped that it will help to fill that gap too." "Only this can be said.." "A poet has very nicely put this." "'Two parts dont combine to become four.'" "'Make the intelligent ones a little innocent.'" "Come, lets bring the moon to earth today."
