This passage is an excerpt from the novel Nectar in a Sieve by one of the
most famous Indian novelists Kamala Markandaya.

village by industrialization. Villagers have lost their properties one by one and a
big building has appeared in each space. So this shows the drastic

poor Indian’s life into another huge tragedy.
