School Drop-Out Idol Maker Who Is Shaping his Children's Future | Sarvan Murtikar | People First

Meet Sarvan, hailing from Jodhpur, Rajasthan followed the footsteps of his father to become a murti maker. He dropped out from school in class 3, as he had to fend for his family. Back in the day, the trade paid well but with acute competition and the ever-increasing inflation, it has taken a huge hit now. Father to 4 boys and 1 girl, he wants to give his children the education that he couldn’t get, but his income can barely afford two square meals a day. Earlier, he could afford to save some of his income, but due to inflation, it’s almost impossible now.
