Little master of music

Bidit Chowdhury, On e-mail
The news item, “A 7-year-old singer enthralls audience” (TDS, May 6, 2013), stated that a little child named Md. Russell held his audience spellbound in Joypurhat. In our country young talents gradually fade away with age. We have seen this in the past (Close-Up 1 star Nolok Babu and Akbar). Young talents require necessary nurturing. According to the report, seven-year-old Russell has to take up singing as a profession as his family is not well-off. I hope the authorities concerned will take care of such gifted children.
