CONTEST: The story behind that one single picture - "A life being as fruit chart seller"

Picture location: Haridwar, North India
Picture date: 03-30-2014

His name is Ravi and he sales fruit chart at Haridwar Bus Stand. When Ravi got in the bus which was going to Delhi, I got one plate fruit chart for me by paying 10 INR. Seeing the behaviour of Ravi, I was curious to know about him, then I started talking. In the talk, Ravi started telling his story in his own words, "I wake up at 6 in the morning and go to the fruit market, from where I buy fruits of 350 INR daily, after coming back from fruit market at 8 am, I start selling fruit chart in every bus, one plate is 10 INR. I sell 50 to 60 plates by 7 pm in 11 hours. So, in this way, I earn total around 650 INR, in which 250 INR is net profit for the day (Less than $4). I have a son named ‘Ram’ who reads in the fourth class. I want to make Ram a cop. We are from Bihar and staying here on rent. Being uneducated, I do not get any good work around here, so I have to do this work to run my home. My wife goes to wash the dishes in the neighbourhood after dropping Ram at school. She pays rent for the house and I bear all the expenses of my family. We are now thinking that Ram should be admitted to a good school next year so that he can get good education.
After hearing his story, I also remembered my childhood when I used to go door to door to drop the newspapers. Well before the bus started, I want to give an additional 50 INR to Ravi, which Ravi refused to accept. The answer of the last question is this photograph, in which Ravi is standing with his friend who was selling cucumbers.

Life is very difficult but still there are many people like Ravi in the world who are fighting with the life like a soldier.
