Wake up Indians!!!

Last night I was watching an interview with Lakshmi Mittal, the third richest person in the world. The interviewer was in full praise of this iconic rise from a poor Rajasthani village to the 500-crore worth house. It is a really praiseworthy and applaudable achievement. But what I wanted to know is what he has done for that village in Rajasthan. Indians have risen to high levels internationally .. but have they done their dues towards their homeland.

I was reading through this article http://www.indianexpress.com/story/3545.html

If only all financially well off institutions adopted a village ...

When in school , we had SUPW classes in which we did many things like collecting clothes for poor. In addition to this we had to take Sakshartha classes for the poor. Do today's children have time for all this ? Is the present education system instilling such feelings for fellow humans among the young generation?
