Banke has a house in Kohalpur Municipality-11, Campus Chowk. Now I am 42 years old. My sorrows are also 42 thousand. However, I have been sewing torn shoes and slippers all day long under the pavement of NTV Road in Kohalpur because I had to make a living.

Earning from 3 to 800 rupees a day for enduring hot and cold weather all day . They are not always the same. Clients also come from various sources . Someone shouts that the money is too much. They chatter . Some even add that they say little. 

15 years ago we came down from Salyan to Kohalpur . Her husband married her second time saying she didn't have a son. It has been 10 years since she started living apart from her husband. When I was young, my mother passed away. I lost my father at the age of 10. I got married at the age of 16. The same husband also cheated and changed the way. 

There is no one except one daughter in the family . I educated that daughter up to class 12 and got her married a year ago . I will save five hundred on the day of earning . I had taken a loan of one and a half lakh rupees from the cooperative for my daughter's wedding. I am paying by saving a little . Salt, oil and vegetables can be used as wages for the whole day . The tongue keeps searching for the sweet and smooth. However, I don't eat anything except two meals a day. After preparing food in the morning, I carry it and reach the place of work at 8 o'clock . In the afternoon, I eat the same food that I brought in tiffin . After closing the shop around 5 pm, I return home and cook and eat. 

I became more lonely after my daughter's marriage. I don't like to cook and eat alone. I cook and eat meat twice a month. Farmland is nothing . All must be bought and eaten. It is very expensive . 100 is spent only on vegetables for the day . On top of that, I keep getting sick . I am puzzled by back pain and pain in limbs. Three thousand a month is spent on medicines. There is no one who earns and takes care of. If it dies, it seems that the neighbors will throw it away. 

property has only one living room in its name . That too in Sukambasi Basti . I don't even know how long it will take to get up. Once it broke down and repaired it. Even though her husband got married for the second time, he taught her the skill of sewing shoes and slippers. He wore this one. You don't have to starve when you have skills in your hands. I have lived on the basis of that skill. Earned money could not be saved . The only big concern is that the debt can be paid. After paying this loan, you will be worry-free.

It has been 15 years since he started sewing shoes and sandals on the road. Being alone, there is no one to ask whether he eats or not. If the stomach asks for it, it should be cooked and eaten. She does not keep a book of monthly earnings. I buy yarn, needle, polish for the shop . I don't wear new shoes . I have kept only materials for sewing torn shoes-sandals. I am running my life like torn shoes-sandals.
