Question

Describe the irony in saheb name

Answer 1

The irony in Saheb's name is this: his full name is Saheb-E-Alam, which means the Lord of the Universe. Quite contrary to the meaning of his name he does the menial job of rummaging through garbage mounds to collect recyclable plastic or the like. This contrast between the meaning of his name and the poverty-stricken life is the irony of his name. 

Answer 2

Answer:

Explanation:'saheb-e-alam' means the 'lord of the universe' but saheb was oblivious of what it meant. contrary to what his name represented, he roamed the streets with his friends, an army of barefooted boys scrounging in the garbage heaps to make both ends meet.
