When I go to upper-caste, middle-class homes, the father and mother would be complaining: 'The child is not studying, he's watching TV. When I go to slums to meet my relatives, they don't have that kind of problem. You will see that the light is not there; there is a gutter flowing nearby. But the child is sitting there in whatever room has electricity, and he is studying. He doesn't need motivation.
