Summary / Abstract (Note) | When we came to the land of Hindustan, we were sent to a refugee camp near Ahmednagar in a special train. We were given free food, clothes, soap, for some time. Later on, an order was issued that the camp had to be shut down. We had to go to Vithalwadi near Kalyan. We left once again. Once again, we had free clothes, free electricity for almost a year. In the meanwhile proud Sindhis who felt that the free facilities would not last forever and in any case, they could not live off them any more, began looking for employment. I was one of them. |
