"I want to come & meet you because it's urgent", say Raja Maa. She pops out an envelope with money & hands it over to me. I am startled at this generosity of a house maid who was not paid her salary during the crisis & yet she is pouring her gratitude. She was saving Rs. 200 monthly for the past 3 years for "Manjal neer athu Vizhal" which is the celebration for Girls attaining Puberty. Her daughter Manju has Down Syndrome & she wanted to gift Gold to her when she attains teenage but this crisis has moved a single mother to give her everything purely out of love.
