In Firozabad’s bangle industry, there are many forces that keep the workers below poverty line. Businessmen are responsible for this, which attract the poor by luring them with money. And in its greed, they engage their children in this work from a very young age. Government administration is also responsible for this. If they are strict, then no person can work in such a hazardous atmosphere that too for a little money. Even after harming their health, those people are not earning much money. As we read in this chapter about a lady with Savita saying not even a single day came in her life that she slept with a full stomach. Police are also responsible for this because if they follow the law and do not allow illegal activities to run, then no one can operate the way bangle industry is growing in Firozabad.

Indeed the promises made to poor are rarely kept. It’s a lewd joke by the upper class with them. People often show them lucrative dreams and promise to fulfill them but do not take them seriously. We always want to do something for the poor children but doing so is a difficult task to work on. Similar was the case with author Anees Jung making a false promise of constructing a school for Saheb.

Even though Anees understands the pain of poor children yet when it comes for execution of a plan, it makes all the difference.

There are many reasons for the migration of people from the villages to the cities. The primary reason is employment as cities offer better opportunities for youth in industries. On the other hand, better education, medical facilities and infrastructure are some of the other reasons of people switching themselves to cities. But in case of Saheb and his family, they moved from Bangladesh to India for their survival as they were poor and relied totally on farming which got affected by continuous storms and they were about to die of starvation.
Mukesh’s future planning was different from his family members and from rest of the city who were involved in carrying on the tradition of carrying forward their family business since generations. A city where everyone considers this work to be a God’s blessing or life’s destiny and wants to take itRead more
Mukesh’s future planning was different from his family members and from rest of the city who were involved in carrying on the tradition of carrying forward their family business since generations.
