Budhia Singh a four-year-old boy from the state of Orissa in India ran into the record books when he ran 65 km on Tuesday. Well and fine... he is in the record books. But is his age right for such long distance running? Does the little kid know actually what he is doing? No idea.
This is the tale of thousands of children around the world. Budhia Singh's father died at an early age and his mother was forced to sell him. The coach of the boy rescued him. Fine.
Will the boy run such long distance in the scorching summer, if he had well to do parents? What are the criteria for taking part in marathon? Is a little boy of such ripe age fit for it? No body has answers to such questions. The television channels and newspapers in India are celebrating the achievement of the kid. A nation starving for medals Olympics sees him as a rising start?
One last question to the people who are applauding the achievement of the kid….will you send your four-year-old son or daughter to run for 65 kilometers in 36 degree Celsius.
