Why do Prashant and other volunteers resist the plan to set up institutions for orphans and widows? What alternatives do they consider?
Answer :
Prashant and other volunteers resist the plan to set up an institution for orphans and widows as they feel that in such institutions the orphaned children would grow up without love. Widowed women would suffer from loneliness. They would bear the stigma of being widows. Therefore, Prashant and others believe that children should be brought up in the families of their own community. They should be kept in families of childless widows.
