Sometimes we are so insensitive to our surroundings that it takes an assignment to know the people without whom we can not survive a day. In this assignment I have questioned my Maid on some of the things that concern their life a lot.
Babli has been working at peoples home since childhood. She herself doesn’t know the years she has been married for. I asked her the following questions:
Q: Common ailments she suffers from.And where does she go for treatment.
A: Headache, cold, fever. She goes to the chemist generally and asks him to give the suitable medicines. She doesn’t go to the doctor till something really bad has happened.
Q: Do children study?
A: Yes, all three children study . My daughter is in 10th , another daughter in 6th and son in 6th .
Q: Which school?
A: All 3 study in Govt schools whose name she did not know.
Q: Do they get
A: pehle dete the, abh nahi dete
Q: Why does she want children to be educated ?
A : It is very important to get them educated so that they don’t live a life of hardship and uncertainity like me and my husband
Q: How much education has she herself received?
A: Main kabhi school nahi gayi hoon par bacho ko padhake saari khushi mil jayegi.
