| Summary |
"Minni vive en la parte más pobre de Mumbai, con acceso limitado a agua potable y horas de espera para usar el grifo comunal. Últimamente, el acceso está amenazado por cortes de agua y, como Minni descubre una noche, por ladrones. Sin embargo, en el edificio donde trabaja al servicio de una familia privilegiada, tienen agua potable y hasta una piscina en el techo. Un día Minni se encuentra con el jefe de la mafia del agua. ¿Debe denunciarlo, incluso si pierde su trabajo y tal vez su vida? ¿Cuándo todo se volvió tan difícil?"-- Page [4] of cover. |

Minni lives in the poorest part of Mumbai, with limited access to clean drinking water and waiting hours to use the communal tap. Lately, access has been threatened by water cuts and, as Minni discovers one night, by thieves. However, in the building where she works for a privileged family, they have drinking water and even a pool on the roof. One day Minni meets the boss of the water mafia. Should you report it, even if you lose your job and maybe your life? When did everything get so difficult? |
