Tejpal singh also got her to agreed to work on his field during the harvest season for Rs. 35 a day.
Yes. Savita’s condition would have been better if she could get a loan from the bank. The bank would have provided her the loan at a low rate of interest. Moreover, Savita could have devoted more time on her own field instead of working for Tejpal Singh as farm labourer.
