(Jaypratap studies in class eight. In his village marriage at the age of 13-14 is usual practice. He made a comics to raise his voice against the early marriage.)
Translation:
Act of Ballal Sen: By Joypratap Halder (Ballal Sen was a well known king of Bengal)
One day while coming back from school Tuni met a bird named Ballal Sen. She was surprised to hear such name of a bird. The bird then said that he has named himself Ballal Sen as he stands against injustice. After few days, another bird informed Ballal that his friend Tuni is being married early. Ballal felt this injustice and decided to stand against it as that girl is deprived from proper development. Ballal along with other birds went to meet Tuni’s father. They told her father not to marry Tuni as her body is not ready for it. Her father got annoyed initially. Ballal said that we are not just giving lecture but are trying to open his eyes. Her father then realised and stopped the marriage ceremony. Tuni was very happy, invited all birds for dinner and thanked them.
