    (Child Rights and You (CRY), 2018-08-12) Moitra, Soha
    10-year-old Nainika took a quick look around the army regiment in the Delhi Cantonment area and gasped in disbelief. “I didn’t know there were girls in the army!” she squealed, trying hard to keep her excitement under control. Ishan was amused to know that one needn’t be as tall as Amitabh Bachchan to join the army. Among other things that Nainika, Ishan, and their friends learnt, the most alluring bit was that getting into the army did not depend on the marks scored in the classroom alone.

    On International Volunteer Day, let’s salute change-makers, who are working to create a lasting impact and transform the lives of India’s underprivileged children. Living in a metropolitan city is rewarding in many ways, and often ensures a better quality of life. Whether it is access to education, lucrative careers, or better earnings, an urban setup promises opportunities galore.
