What explanations does the author offer for the children not wearing footwear?
The author comes across many shoeless rag-picker children in her neighbourhood. According to her, one explanation of this habit of remaining barefoot is that it is a tradition among the poor children of this country. However, the author quickly mentions that calling it a tradition could be just a means of justification of the utter destitution.
Is Saheb happy working at the tea-stall? Explain.
Saheb is not really happy working at the tea-stall because working for a master meant sacrificing his freedom and his “carefree look”. Even though the job at the tea-stall pays him 800 rupees and all his meals, he seems less contented than before. The weight of his master’s steel canister seems heavier than his rag-picking plastic bag.
