I meet Kadakh Singh, a very cute boy who doesn’t know his age, spends most of his day roaming the jungle that surrounds the village. Every day or whenever, he brings home fruits, berries, mushrooms, tubers, flowers, roots… Khadakh Singh knows the name and the diverse uses of almost every tree or plant that grows in his village… even the nondescript weeds!! As we tour the village, he picks up the long stalk of an evergreen large shrub he identifies as Ruina (Mallotus phillippensis). He expertly explains how to peel off the outer layer of the stem. “Chewing the inner stem is good for cough!!” he says as a matter of fact... ancientroots.in/learning-doesnt-take-place-in-schools-only/
