UNIT 4 Lesson 4(B) The Story of Lipi

In the next class Ms Choudhury tells her students the story of Lipi. In brief the story is like this: The year before last, Lipi, a 14-year old girl, had been in class 9 in a rural school in Rangpur.

Lipi is the eldest of five children—three daughters and two sons. Their father is a day labourer working on other people’s land and mother is a homemaker and a part-time worker at other people’s houses.

The parents, particularly the mother, found it real difficult to raise five children on the small income the father could earn.

Perhaps that is why Lipi’s father wanted to marry her off. But Lipi was not ready to accept what her parents wanted to impose on her.

She wanted to pursue her education. So long her mother stood by her, though secretly. But when her father arranged her marriage with Tara Mia, the only son of a farmer in the same village, she became a little upset.

Tara Mia was a widower—illiterate, but well off. His father had a few acres of arable land and was influential in the village. The marriage seemed to be inevitable.

Lipi first talked with her classmates and then with the Headteacher, who was very sympathetic to her. He called a meeting of the teachers and students of the school.

The Head teacher explained in detail the serious consequences that would follow Lipi’s marriage. She would be having children from her very early age — 15 or 16.

It would create constant health hazards to her. Her education would stop. And on top of all, her marriage against her will might shatter her future dream.

At one stage, Tara Mia’s father stood up and tried to argue, “You are all making mistakes. Lipi would be very happy if she got married with Tara Mia.
