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.
