Question

How did Shovan Lal react to the young man’s proposal to start as a shoeshine?

Answer 1

Answer:

Shovan Lal was dead shocked. He thought that the author was making fun of his misery. He again confirmed with the author that do he really intend to do shoe polishing on pavements like him.

But in reality the author was amazed that the total monthly salary of Shovan Lal is actually higher than a clerk in a government job. Shovan Lal gave a clue that consulting the shoe polishing union can be of some help to the author.
