Mango season is here
It is hot brutally hot, I
am told the heat is needed to ripen the mangoes,
so I stop complaining and
understand why mangoes grow where there
is dry heat. Like Malda, a part of North Bengal
Its summer and the rich are selling
water, selling water at a premium,
making a killing, what’s there investment,
the pump to pull water and
maybe electric if they pay the bill that is
As is the norm, the labor is bonded
labor who are working over the
years and are paid when they need money, else
they are not paid
nothing, or next to nothing
Cant blame the landlords, as the
labor too dont want to think of the
future, he would rather grab what ever he can today, lees and lesser is
ok with
him if it is money in hand,
