“My young daughter is excited to see me after a month. I work in a small factory in Vijayawada, 150 kilometers away from my village. I miss my family but have no option other than to stay away from them and work hard to make ends meet. Everytime I go home, my little girl asks me many questions. She wants to know all about my work. It motivates me to work harder so that I have something exciting to share with her. I’ve been working overtime for the past week as I want to give my wife and daughter a nice surprise this Diwali! Just another seven days until I go back to my village with lots of fire crackers and new clothes.”
