Hope This Boy Becomes IAS: Actress Swara On The Video Of Child Saying He Would Go To School, Not Temple

Sharing the video of the Dalit boy expressing his opinion about the Ram temple consecration, actress Swara Bhasker took to social media and wrote that she hope this boy becomes an IAS officer. “That would be a proud moment for this country.” She was commenting on a 13-year-old boy named ‘Adarsh Raj”, whose opinions from an interview gone viral. The said interview’s video has gained good traction on social media and it features the boy and a reporter in which both were seen talking about the temple inauguration. While the reporter sought public opinion on the Ram temple event, which was inaugurated today by Prime Minister Modi, the child seizing the moment said that only the number of beggars will increase from the temple.

In the viral video, the reporter can be seen arguing with the child saying that the child can worship in the temple and can get job with the god’s blessing. The child, dismissing the reporter’s claim, said that God gives nothing and we have to study hard to get a job. The child with an assertive voice stated that it is upon us to go to school and study hard to get a job. “If we do not study, we will not get the job.”

When the reporter asked back-to-back questions trying to convince the temple’s significance saying that Adarsh would get god’s blessing, the child replied that he does not want the god”s blessing, but wants to go to school. “I got an education by going to school and no God came to give me education”. The child further said that instead of going to the temple and wasting time, he would go to school and learn something new. When asked about the prayer, the child said he would pray and respect his parents and teachers.

When asked about Adarsh”s ambition, the child said he wanted to be an IAS officer and serve the society. Talking about Dr Ambedkar, the child said that Babasaheb Ambedkar gave them everything, including the constitution and their rights. “Ram gave nothing,” the child said to the reporter.

However, the actress Swara in her post on X wished the child to be an IAS officer as he dreamt to be, noting that the little Adarsh becoming an IAS officer in the future would be a proud moment for the country. Swara has been outspoken on many issues and she is also one of the vocal critics of the Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
