AN ORDINARY FAMILY IN
RANIPUR
This is an absolutely standard family that has been living in Ranipur for as long as they can remember. Their story was narrated to me by Usha Yadav, the 5th child {4th daughter} of the family. She is 14 years old, studies in the 8th grade and is currently preparing for her final examination. She spends most of her time at home, cooking for her family, studying and playing with other kids. Her family consists of 7 children along with her mother and father. Three of her elder sisters are already married. Her elder brother works as a bulldozer driver, and the rest of her siblings are still studying.
The family has been in the bird feeding business for several years. Their parents go to the forest every morning and take care of all the different species of wild birds by feeding them specific items such as leaves, fruits and nuts.
This is the story of this ordinary family, because everyone in the spotlight isn't extraordinary but that does not make them less special.
