Indian boy banned from walk
A five-year-old Indian boy whose long-distance running last year sparked protests from rights activists, has been barred from going on a proposed 500 kilometre (311 mile) walk, an official said today.
Budhia Singh's 11-day walk from Bhubaneswar in the eastern state of Orissa to Calcutta, the capital of West Bengal state, had been scheduled to begin June 6, his coach Biranchi Das announced last week.
