The official numbers say over 1.5 lakh lives lost on our roads every year, and they'll tell you it's young men on bikes. But in my *nakabandi* points, I see it's the families in those three-wheelers and overloaded tempoes—the *mazdoor* just trying to get home—who are shattered most. Every time I see a child's broken school bag in the wreck, I think of my own students and their *kaat-pute* notebooks, and that fear is a different ache altogether, yaar.
