Of Heat, Floods And Lives On The Edge


(MENAFN- Live Mint) "Ahmedabad: People likedo not have a job where we can afford to take paid leaves,” remarks 40-year-old Urmila Srivastava drily. Srivastava, a resident of Ahmedabad's Rakhial locality, pauses to catch her breath as she looks up from her sewing machine in her tiny, dimly lit home. Her husband sells plasticware and their three children, aged 20, 18, and 17, are studying. Though it is difficult to work in the cramped space, a part of which also serves as her bathroom, she reminds herself that the rent of ₹4,000 is all that the family can afford.
