Karnataka: PT Teacher to mango plucker in a month Because of lockdown

KOLAR: Plucking mangoes at groves near his village, Narasimha says that he has several ideas running through his head.
Any fair work performed to make money is honourable, feels that the prior PT teacher.
Then again, having lost 2 tasks in rapid succession, he’s thought of stopping his own life apprehensive about how he’ll nourish the dozen-odd loved ones determined by him.
It’s been a tough ride to its 37-year-old, who till recently was PT teacher cum planner at Vardhi Public School in Mallanayakanahalli village, about 110km from Bengaluru around Mulbagal-V Kota Road.
A graduate who obtained the honorary doctorate for his accomplishments from folk artwork, Narasimha is now out of job as the college is shut to the lockdown, also receives just portion of his wages.
Narasimha says that he worked with different art troupes to pursue his enthusiasm but it paid small so he combined the college.
He turned into a mason shortly after the college closed, and forced roughly Rs 450 per day, working with a builder at his village, even Dommasandra village at Mulbagal taluk.
Following a fortnight, however, the building work has been stopped and earning dried up also.
He plucks mangoes to get a daily wage of Rs 300.
“My elderly parents and a few 14 relatives are determined on me.
All of the valuables from the home have now been pledged and also my earnings are hardly sufficient to keep the family going,” says the dad of 2.
“I’ve got dark thoughts of ending my own life but with all these people depending on me, particularly my sister along with her sickly husband, there is no choice except to pull .” Until the lockdown, Narasimha has been paid an adequate salary, but within the last two weeks, the faculty has paid Rs 10,000.
“The faculty management has been kind enough to cover wages even through the last lockdown, but because of some source crunch, they can’t cover total,” Narasimha states.
His spouse Srilatha, who was employed as an attendant in a private college, hasn’t yet been paid for a couple of decades.
The authorities aid package, he states, won’t profit non-subject teachers.
“Some teachers I know are still working in both areas or loaders from godowns.”
