This Food and Craft Bazar is a treasure house of Indian culture, handicrafts and ethnic cuisine, A unique bazaar, in the heart of the city, it displays the richness of Indian culture on a permanent basis.  Now, we will talk about the clothing section of Dilli Haat. 

Clothing

Along with being a shopping bazaar in Delhi it is also a brand name. Economic exposure to local artisans was the basic premise behind the setting up of Dilli Haat. Wheather locals or foreigners visiting Delhi, both kinds prefer to go to Dilli Haat to shop. This is not only because it is a great place to acquire some traditional Indian pieces for one’s wardrobe or home, it is also because the quality of the wares is good and are priced fairly.

The categories of products for shopping range from fashion to home décor, food stuff, antiquities, furniture and art. Within the fashion section one can choose from sarees, suits, stoles, dupattas, footwear, shirts, kurtas, regional costumes, silk garments, cotton garments, woolen outfits, herbal make-up, jewellry, accessories such as bindis, mehendi or henna (or artists who will apply these temporary tattoos on-the-spot) and DIY pouches, ethnic handbags, leather items like belts and shoes and much more. Popular items include bags, cushion covers, embroidered and woven fabrics, wood carvings, shoes, carpets and rugs, sarees and other ethnic wear, leather items, jewellry, and paintings. The diversity of products, the richness of colour, as well as the taste and smells of the market all made for a wonderful couple of hours exploration, and I hope that the pictures tells something of the essence of the place.

#WoPadhegiTohKhayegiKya is our campaign. May be its sounds weird but this the harsh truth of our society. Even after 70 years of independence, not all but many children of our country have to choose between Education or livelihood. Either they can study or they can work hard and have their food once in a day. Our film "Payuna" shows the harsh reality of our society and our education system.

Payuna

Payuna a film dedicated to all the girl child who are deprived from education and basic necessities. This is the story of Payuna, a balloon selling girl in the streets and park of Delhi.

Payuna’s story is the story of many such girls of this country. This really pity that after 72 years of independence, children specially girls are forced to work for their family’s bread and butter. Everyone from education system to government level are responsible for this condition. This film will show the truth after all these years after independence where we stand. At least 35 million children aged 6 – 14 years do not attend school. 53% of girls in the age group of 5 to 9 years are illiterate. This is the harsh reality of our country.

There are some other facts:-
In India, only 53% of habitation has a primary school.
In India, only 20% of habitation has a secondary school.
On an average an upper primary school is 3 km away in 22% of areas under habitations.
In nearly 60% of schools, there are less than two teachers to teach Classes I to V.
On an average, there are less than three teachers per primary school. They have to manage classes from I to V every day.
High cost of private education and need to work to support their families and little interest in studies are the reasons given by 3 in every four drop-outs as the reason they leave.
Dropout rates increase alarmingly in class III to V, its 50% for boys, 58% for girls.
1 in 40, primary school in India is conducted in open spaces or tents.

About Us:

We, Lost Star Productions help children especially girls to unlock their potential and realize their dreams. We believe that every child is extraordinary and can scale great heights if provided with the right learning opportunities and education.

Why education is important in India?

· 53% of girls in the age group of 5 to 9 years are illiterate.

· In nearly 60% of schools, there are less than two teachers to teach Classes I to V.

· At least 35 million children aged 6 - 14 years do not attend school.

India is a country with more than one billion people, and just one-third of them can read. Rapidly growing size of population, shortages of teachers, books, and basic facilities, and insufficient public funds to cover education costs are some of the nation’s toughest challenges. This is where Children in India are facing the basic challenges. According to a study, more than 30% of educational funds are allocated towards higher education, leaving the primary education in India in sway. One of the main reasons behind this is poverty. When earning a livelihood and taking care of the members of the family becomes a primary matter of concern in one’s life, education stands a little or, very often, no chance of pursuance. . The practice of child labour in India and resistance to sending girls to school in several parts of the country remain as genuine concerns.

Our Objectives:

1.  We want to improve our education system by giving a positive message in the society through our Documentary and Films.

2.  We want the government to take some steps for the betterment of the girls education.

3.  We want the children to utilize their skills in getting correct amount of education instead of selling products or doing other work in the streets.

4.  We want the youth to be aware about these kids so that they can contribute in a certain way to help them in getting educated.

Education and Youth Empowerment:

Children, especially girls, belonging to the most impoverished backgrounds are expected to forfeit their right and desire to go to school because they are expected to manage household chores and sibling rearing. A lack of necessary skills like

negotiation, critical thinking and discerning ability to deal with complex situation. The movement focus lies on developing life skills that build and enhance the ability of girls from marginalised backgrounds to drive a change in their own communities. With regular and generous contributions from our supporters, we are able to march steadily towards achieving these goals.

Illiteracy is a curse and 50% of the world’s illiterates are Indians. Educating those children will lead to improve health, leadership qualities and economic opportunities. Girl’s education and leadership skills will lead to challenge and reshape the limitations placed on girls’ lives. However, academic education does not automatically result in empowering girls; they need help in developing leadership capabilities.

School gives girls a chance at life, especially in areas of the world where child marriage, early motherhood and poverty are the only other options. We work to remove obstacles keeping girls from leading healthy, empowered lives.
