'Another gem from Mr. Kailash Satyarthi, 1/2 - by K.J.S.Chatrath

Cliche':
A cliché or cliche (/ˈkliːʃeɪ/ or /klɪˈʃeɪ/) is an expression, idea, or element of an artistic work which has become overused to the point of losing its original meaning or effect, even to the point of being trite or irritating, especially when at some earlier time it was considered meaningful or novel.
. . . . . 


While delivering the Sunanda Memorial Lecture in New Delhi yesterday, the 1/2 Nobel Prize awardee Mr. Kailash Satyarthi explained:  "There are three enemies of a child-friendly society, namely, apathy, fear and intolerance, he added. Children are unfortunately victims of poverty, illiteracy, trafficking, conflicts and natural calamities."*

He then came with the gem of a solution, "There was a need for a synergy between top down and bottom up approach of development,"(emphasis supplied)* he said.
