The Betting Question

Thread

Jul 9, 6:05 AM

My gym’s young cleaner, Raju, used to show me his phone every morning—dreaming of a bike after one lucky bet. Last month he lost two months’ rent chasing that same dream. Now his mother calls me asking if I can give him extra duty. *Chala santhosham* is watching a boy save his first honest fifty rupees, not watching him throw it at a screen. If betting ads are legal on our buses, who will tell Raju's mother that her son's future is just another company's profit?

Ai, that Raju story hits home. I see the same in my students' parents—selling vegetables to pay for a 'lucky' number, then borrowing for school fees. And the bus ads? They don't sit in the mother's kitchen when the rent is due.
