Hello. I am the hands of an exceptionally bustling individual. I work continually, grabbing various stuff. I prefer not to state it so anyone can hear to the others since they withdraw in appall and fear. My individual is outcasted, esteemed as an untouchable. I clean the human excreta that lies around in the dry lavatories of upper standing families. I am the hands of a manual forager.

I was naturally introduced to a group of manual scroungers. As a kid, I never went to class, as I was not permitted to enter one, or I spread my infected quality around. I had no companions, only my individual who might hold me to her face and sob for a considerable length of time together. She doesn't do that any longer; she abhors her hands, loathes the piece of her body that grabs excreta, without stopping for even a minute. She believe I'm smudged even after she showers five times each day. She disdains her body totally, yet she must choose between limited options; it is her exclusive wellspring of business.
Each morning, she gets up at 5, and I sprinkle chilly water everywhere all over. I, at that point get a sweeper and a bushel and set out to clean toilets in the town. I start at the upper-position Hindus path. I am required to just do my work and move out of their way without griping. Also, I do that, exactly. My sweeper submissively brushes the excreta into the crate; now and again I am compelled to get the left-overs myself. I feel filthy, foul and sickened for the stench is disgusting, however I need to endure it, for I can't fall flat the individual I have a place with. Where else would she be able to go?
I at that point put the container on her take and set off to dump it in the fields. There are pits uncovered for this reason. I recollect, once, the container fell profound into the pit and she shouted out in trouble as that was the main crate we had and we didn't have the cash to bear the cost of another. She bounced. Directly into the pit, in the midst of all the rottenness. Also, she push me into the wreckage, clearing me around to discover it. I gagged. I needed to pass on in that spot. She found the bin and took us home. She didn't eat or rest for the following 7 days. This whole business is so mortifying and demeaning that she delays to give me a chance to touch God's object of worship, and I feel frightened to go to Him with my sullied hands. It has been ages since she has embraced her kids; she wouldn't like to dirty their pure souls.
Thus I sob from the sweat of her work, from the tears of her defenselessness and I feel regretful for there is nothing I can do until the point when she chooses to. Till at that point, I can just wipe her tears and expectation that I don't appall her.
This is the narrative of about 1.33 million individuals in India, driving an undignified life that they don't merit. Numerous are paid a small Rs. 50-60 a month for their "administrations". Scarcely enough to survive the day. Despite the fact that the Prohibition of Employment as Manual Scavengers and their Rehabilitation Bill was passes this September, I think about whether there will be powerful execution by any means. In spite of the fact that the law restricts manual rummaging, does it give an elective vocation? By what method will individuals, similar to her, even recover their sense of pride? It is a permanent scar on their lives. Will they or would they be able to recuperate from it? Will they be dealt with as equivalents in the public eye? Will their hands ever really possess an aroma similar to the scents of Arabia?
