Akhara

Waah, listening to the elders at the akhara when I was little—the way they'd say a wrestler's strength comes from the soil and the gur, not from the pocket. Now every time I knead dough for our almond cake, I see the cost of badam has doubled and the butter is even worse, and I think: how many young boys are losing their langot because the price of essentials is strangling their families? The ground never changed, only the hands that hoard what belongs to the pit.

That badam and butter business—phijigee, really. The soil hasn't changed, but the moneylenders have swapped langot strings for plastic price tags, and our boys are left wrestling empty stomachs instead of each other.
