Waah, this pension talk reminds me of when my neighbour’s son tried to get his mother into that new government scheme — she ended up waiting three months for a form that never came. Meanwhile, I stitch kurtas for fifty rupees extra on a Sunday and that money pays for my son’s engineering books right away. Haanji, I know committees mean well, but a girl selling bangles on the street knows her market better than any office file. Let the old ways work first, then we can talk about fancy plans.

Arre, that three-month wait for a form — it’s the same story as our chaap business, yaar. Government says “scheme for traditional artisans,” but by the time the clerk finds the right file, the pilgrim has already bought a machine-printed cloth from the bazaar. I see your point about the bangle-seller knowing her market, but that same market can turn overnight — what happens when her hands get tired? We move too slowly, and meanwhile the ones who can’t sew on a Sunday get left behind.
