The Doll Maker

The Doll maker

    This is a story of a man named Raju, he lives in a small village of district Bareilly India. His main work is to make dolls out of waste materiel, like pisses of cloths, laces and other plastic material. He sell these dolls in different parts of our district in villages only, as no one buy these dolls in cities, while i talked to him i come to know that he has a bicycle modified with a large tin container placed on the carrier, mostly he visited to those places where village markets and fairs are engaged he also visit door to door to sell his craft and peoples buy them, and at the day end he earns nearly 100 to 150 Rupees, the cost of these dolls are very low, the price of one piece is 20 Rupees, as Indian villagers are unable to buy expensive toys for their children and the children are not habitual of expensive toys also. So whenever they get this type of toy for them their happiness is on seventh heaven. This is the only way of income of Raju he works very hard to fulfill the needs of his family as he do not have any other source of income. He told me that in rainy season he have to face difficulty in selling his product as many times his dolls get wet and the road conditions get worse at that time, he have to face difficulty in carrying his bicycle in muddy roads, and people even do not take much interest also. He also told me that he as some fix areas and Bazaar where he get good sale of his dolls. Being a villager and a farmer i also bought 2 dolls from him for my kids and these dolls are still resting in my showcase.
