Street Kids Yoga at Carter Road,

Here street kids means those underpriviliged kids who study on the road, the promenade of Bandra s elite Carter Road.Classes here are held in the morning under the guidance of a handicapped senior citizen Mr Singh.
Mr Singh is all alone , but there are volunteers who impart their teaching knowledge to the kids, all seasons including the rains.
The joggers ,walkers pool in , donating money for the kids to buy school books, the kids , well they love this place, their parents work as watch men to celebrity bungalows and buildings that line this waterfront, their mothers work for opulent residents of Pali Hill and Carter Road .
The kids enjoy their pictures being taken but love Mr Singh immensely..The irony is Mr Singh wanted a small place on the promenade for a school for these kids but all appeal fell on deaf ears, yet a political honcho got a book stall ear marked for a disabled person on the promenade ,this is misguided political patronage..
The book stall is coincidentally called Paradise..
These are pictures I shot of their Yoga activities some time back...
