Kishori Lal, a tailor and his family under an Ashoka tree in New Friends Colony, New Delhi
â??I came from Rajasthan 22 yeas ago. There was
no footpath here then. The tree that you see on
the footpath is standing on a narrow strip of land
between two sewage lines that run underneath. I asked the maali (gardener) to plant it there and got
the sapling for him. If I have any trouble, the
saheb helps me out. After so many years here,
like this tree I have also taken roots in Delhi. But
who belongs to this place? Even the sahibs are
from outside.â?
