ten feet away

Death belongs to life as birth does. The walk is in the raising of the foot as in the laying of it down
Rabindranath Tagore

But by local standards this isn’t a particularly alarming story, just a conversation with one among the 6,000 rickshaw pullers in a city of as many as 15mn people – some much worse off. But everything exists with everything else, and you could be ten feet away from Yadav and immerse yourself in a completely different world.
