Children at work | class 8 English | Chapter 2 | Supplementary | Explanation | Summary | Conclusion | Ncert solutions
This story revolves around an eleven years old boy, Velu. Velu ran away from his house as his father was a drunkard. His father snatched away all the money that he and his sister earned and would beat them. Being fed up with this everyday beating, he decided to run away from home.
Suddenly he heard a rough voice calling him. He saw a girl around his age. She was wearing a very long banian. Velu stared at her vacantly. Then she asked his name. She guessed rightly that Velu had run away from home. She told him that he won't get food sitting there.
The girl was a ragpicker. She picked her sack and moved away. Velu thought she was his only hope. So he followed her.
The girl picked up a crushed banana and offered it to Velu to eat. Velu was shocked. He asked if they were going to eat the leftovers. The girl disagreed. She said that she ate only untouched food. She threw him a vada. Velu looked at it with distaste. However, he was too hungry to refuse any food. So he ate the banana as well as the vada. The girl could find only one more banana which she ate herself.
Jaya dumped her sack outside a hut. Then she picked up an empty one. She gave Velu a pair of old shoes without laces. She handed him a sack and stick also. Velu was confused. Then Jaya explained that she was a ragpicker. This was the only work she could give to Velu if he wanted any. Children like her collected paper, plastic, glass etc. Then they sell them to Jaggu of Jam Bazar. Jaggu sells them to a factory.
This time Velu hesitated. He hadn't come to Chennai to dig through garbage. However, he felt he must do it until he finds a better job. So he followed her with a sigh.
