3:24 am
the backend rural, the hard in the most of a poor region, the centimeter. now my name is so known, debbie submitted, my 3 children, 2 boys, one girl has my husband, does it require that they work in the fields or at home to be ready to go to there soon? um is 27 and can read or write like a quarter of the indian population. and of the women here in the her only half can read in right. she lives a traditional life here, like her mother and grandmother before her. like many others,
3:25 am
she's found the doors of upward mobility close to her combination fast, but of all it's company that there's not enough work here for us. that's what i need, but they have that's why we can't give our children in education with nor feed them good food. try to get cut out because i'm not educated. i don't have a decent job in a copy of the kids. and then sometimes when we sit down to eat, i don't know, i'm going to manage it all. i see now is that the. ringback poverty, unlimited opportunities are a huge problem in the heart of the indian states. it's the 3rd largest in terms of population and the most densely populated the average daily income here is less than one euro 70, very little, even by indian standards. the, there are many brick works around most of our poor. there are more than 6000 of
3:26 am
these brick kilns in the heart. thousands of families live and work here in extremely harsh conditions. a bonded labor and child labor are still the order of the day. the hire is regarded as india's least develop state . many tried to leave and find work elsewhere in the country. like most here, sometimes family lives from what they can grow and raise themselves subsides. luckily i have 7 goats and one cow. the goats gave birth, not long ago. i wish i did that. and it's saying the finance guy, the guy i use the cow done to make because of the car part of the top, the house. so i cheap and then i use the briquettes for cooking. the cut out although the caste system has officially been abolished, it's still
3:27 am
a major feature of everyday life here. so now belongs to the lowest cost, formerly referred to as the untouchables that said that lives didn't belong to a dallas community. the moment bonzai is the started people from lower task. let's work in the fields of the upper caspell c til their lands. we are little thing, was the pillow gone, have not got a bad the ever costs are still discriminate against us and look down and us out of the hedge. i hate how we look on the tv, the kind of thing. so now i would love to be able to give her children a different life. there are admission quotas for dallas at schools and universities, but those are a long way away in the big cities. too far for many children. sometimes husband location is often away from months. he earns a bit of money working as a bricklayer on building sites in urban areas. at the moment he's expanding the family home to accommodate his brother who is about to get married and move in
3:28 am
daily life in the villages here has barely changed in recent decades. as soon as mother and grand mother cooked in clay of like this one the middle of the names because i'm 27 years old and i live in the greater noise area. yes. financially were strong and i thank the gods to be born into a good family, a lot of the problem, but the have to go and see i am and
3:29 am
vicious but it depends on what it is that a bad thought, but i did my 10th and 12th grade exams, the greater annoyed the school about the excel and then i prepare for medical studies for a year and in 2018. i went to study medicine in china. i'm it's, i am as in love. yeah. because this family made most of its money by selling land incidentally, area wealth is distributed extremely on equally in india. to most affluent, 10 percent possessed 80 percent of the wealth because lives with his extended family in a 10 room house built by his father. the
3:30 am
combined company we, we live together in a large family group by me, my parents, my brothers and their wives, their children. here we are going to work together all the time for mornings evening like the semester sounds. okay. how about a my oldest brother runs a school the way i was getting close enough. got it. and one of my brothers has passed away by the end the, just as in most wealthy families here, education is a top priority. one of the cost is nice is studying law, and another has plans to apply to the civil service ask for because he wants to follow in the footsteps of his deceased brother. it set his sights on a career in politics.
3:31 am
i'd be there to fall out of here without however you can't do anything of this adult the don't or you can open the hospital and that's about to see me to the what the price of the politics that are new limit machine learning at the end to to that's why i want to join a policy or just one with though i want to work for the people to come and go to the a just a few kilometers away. also a new way to new delhi, the whole. my name is so many, i'm 25 years old or maybe a little less based on what the,
3:32 am
what these are. i work in the ground to mix project holidays and do cleanings sweeping and washing utensils. like the so many lives with her to young daughter is in a slow, i'm just across the road from her place of work. she's one of an estimated 40 to 100000000 migrant workers in india who leased their home states, hoping to find a better life in the city. india needs to create millions of jobs. one in every 6 young people is out of work. the highest unemployment rate in 45 years the my husband only used to have our jobs. but not long ago he started driving a water tank or that helps us because now we can get our water delivered here. i
3:33 am
don't have to go fetches anymore and then they got them in the store. t's have already torn down her heart 3 times because like all the others here, it was put up illegally. the family moved here to earn money to repay a loan of around 440 years, cause the when we got married, we had to take out a loan. and so far we haven't been able to repay a fine. we've been paying small amounts for about 4 years, but there are other things we have to pay for to fit that on that on a b, it's not that much. it's around $40000.00 rupees, okay. but because of the interest loan amount keeps going out, it's out of funds, even though we're re paying it, the amount we owe goes up. we can't pay more and it, if you are not much now let me bought the phone. soap in the story is a familiar one. many take out loans, for example, for weddings, seats, or doctors bills. almost 55 percent of the rural populace are in debt. often
3:34 am
they're exploited by local lenders because they can't read or write. moving to a city can seem like the only way to earn money. there's no power or running water here and no toilets or sewage systems every day from 9 to 11 in the morning and 4 to 6 in the afternoon. so if any goes over to the residential complex to clean, she gets paid $4000.00 rupees per month. the equivalent of just under $45.00 zero's . when she's at work neighbors, watch out for her, children are dropping the i got the
3:35 am
back to see the the successful pharma start up founder and hydra bought the this is my favorite picture. so i'm kind of on and me my wife because i lost my 5 that a days of 3. he's my dad. so he took care of me and my and died educational work, not every day. every part of me is taken care of by him and has the family has everything for me. with the family, nothing. nothing, nothing but the secret lives with his mother. like
3:36 am
almost 80 percent of all young people in india, cities, his cousin and his cousins wife also live here in the evening. he enjoys talking to other relatives who live further away the pin. sometimes i have what do you need me to infringe? what the, what do i spend the time? i like to spend my time with my family convenience. i totally forgot. it is not sufficient to spend with my family and all of us we can see enjoying the new new variable. we use the 11th of course, and so all of us being the same in keeping with tradition, his wife is spending the 1st few months after the birth with her parents. that's
3:37 am
why during the week he can only see his 5 month old son on his smartphone screen. of course i missed the marriage was arranged like more than 90 percent of all marriages in india. for the sonata engine, matt, it's been the monthly shared or parts. i mean what, what family is meant to us. and then it happens like if it means i blame me and list on each end and the address back thing to that one. what i don't see a was she understands what i am doing. and she should respect that is above me, an entrepreneur not on being a scientist is, is not in a convention. i'm the,
3:38 am
i don't like to be alone in your thoughts is okay. and as a part of the family i and i want to meet with families on demand. what happens? what means more to you, your family or you know the products are but that my family knows a little bit as any, but i think they know a little bit, but they don't say anything about that in front of me. they have a feeling and i think they ignore it even though they know is it? they can then why that is an hey i'm doing this is i have both. and then k zane knows what it means to break with family tradition in india. he meets us in
3:39 am
secret, at the home of a friend who's also cut off from her family by a little sample of all my brothers are married and live together with our families . ma'am, i mean, i live with my mother so, but my father died 12 years ago about 20 years. i live up under that. so yeah. for some societal pressure, unclear people is often too much to bear. a little was people say marry him off and then he'll be normal like man, a stranger is come to my house, talk to my mother and try to influence her that american on the course of the day. although homosexuality is no longer a crime in india, it's still the case that the people are often ostracized, and there are no laws banning discrimination problem. you see the problem is that
3:40 am
this society doesn't accepted so it doesn't matter to preserve the family reputation. they don't want these things talked about is and accepted. is a give me a lot of names take this. i've gotten like a not zane can only made his partner in secret a long way from his neighborhood. he's always afraid he'll be recognized. he'd prefer not to have to hide like this. imagine go thank a, i imagine that if i was a trans woman, i could have a house or a family though, and marry my boyfriend's phone committee. her as a, when they go to the family, old gate boyfriends a matter to get their hospitals that carry out gender reassignment and a 3rd gender is officially recognized here. but in everyday life, trans people are marginalized, ridiculed, and even a tact. let me tell you i sometimes i think i should leave when do you really don't
3:41 am
think i'm doing an outside india. i wouldn't have these problems saying you can lead a free life there as, as they can do. so i think i should go somewhere else that in life would be better, a tele, using the you, i'm at the, the manager in the most populous state, of which i put a dash one and a half hours north of dailey. my name is my name is mohammed amount, and we've been doing this work for almost 20 years now. this used to be a small street fluid store and it probably sort of and since i've been working here, it's a proper restaurant, inflation. but right now, for this trend, pedestrian with this patient, what our specialty, he was the leading duty on the it's made with me and, and it's a very famous off the same as well. how much stanley mixed it through jani,
3:42 am
just the way his grandmother used to rice, spices and meat simmered for several hours. the recipe for this yellow de leon sauce is a well kept secret. he sells more than 160 portions of the jani every day, as well as can bobs and other north indians specialties. he now has a staff of 18. the restaurant is open from noon to 10 pm every day. we are like single left here and then we have one restaurant, but we'd like to expand and have a few branches and that is amended by you know, fast food style with self service increment, automatic painting. hooked. only part of the being for the nice thing is that we're also planning to renovate the restaurant in nation fee for the next generation fee for my children. who are you for muslims. like mohammed hearing that the situation is tense like large parts of the country. merritt is covered by moody's can do nationalist party, the b j. p. violence regularly flares out between hindus and
3:43 am
woodlands in merit. most recently in 2023 and there are often fatalities the new rendered. moody has been accused of promoting policies that stoke division between hindus and muslims. for muslim communities, the situation is a burden. mohammed tells us he closes his restaurant on major hand, do holidays as a precautionary measure. he's afraid that agitated crowds might vandalized or set fire to his restaurant the it's important to him to maintain good relations with the local police,
3:44 am
the but i'm leaving once a month when they come. we host them with lots of respect on that because they each year and we give them special discount. we have, i mean it's not like they say they're from the police and don't want to pay. you know, it's out of respect that we give the police and government workers a special discount, cutting low cut all this long. but if i did a local activist, go how me to re lease that the many different religions in india can live in peace as a social worker. he tries to raise awareness about the problems faced by muslims and provide support to the families of victims of violence. of the doing most of the muslims are afraid is they can't trust the discovery and feel like 2nd class citizens sitting in the situation for muslims has deteriorated. since this government took power to help and not just their economic situation. i'd say there's a climate of fear now i'm on what's lens and other minorities. mostly if we're
3:45 am
going over the majority population also has a census here in their day to day life. the way one or the most news can the it's not an easy situation for the nearly 200000000 muslims in india. there's a country's largest religious minority. and the indian constitution is explicitly secular and has enshrined equal rights for all religious groups here. the in the near daily, after going to the fitness studio and having breakfast because is praying at his home trying. although he's a member of the hindu majorities at moody and tends to mobilize in his favor. because is not a fan of movies,
3:46 am
politics. i'm religious. i was born in do, but i don't celebrate my face in public and i'm just go back on the go after waking up in the morning, everyone in the family offers up their prayers for children. my sister in law, the thinking is that doesn't mean we should put on a public demonstration of our fe new almost every day because and his team drive around visiting villages in the region. the contacts he makes in these places could be important for his political career. the, for me just across the country, government doesn't do anything for us. so what used to cost 300 rupees, no cost a 1000 things or no one's thinking about the farmers on their income hasn't gone
3:47 am
out of date. so didn't get this. government isn't taken care of the issues that concern us santo. but in, in, for me, i don't and then right know, gone during the election is going and we're campaign. that means that we're constantly on the ruins of a lot of the company. we've gone out there and can do is we want a new government that takes care of bodies. the young people almost gonna buy something here in the villages of northern india. it's the men who have this say they make decisions together. for example, concerning the distribution of water, or who's allowed to marry whom the village elders wield great authority. because tries to gauge the mood in the village, the men are unhappy with their current political representation by modi's b. j. p. in 2027 because wants to stand
3:48 am
as a local candidate for the sum swati party moody's competition. and for that he needs their votes. the job. and even though i mean how many people assigned weren't given a job, i'm going to be given a who's supporting you there are other issues. the g. p. candidates promise new roads in the last election campaign have they've been built because hopes to capitalize on the general sense of dissatisfaction, where the voters were the youth. exactly. so i do see that we can become number one in the world of young people, work hard for it. we can do that. any boss of anything is possible. grandpa,
3:49 am
so what it is, housing is here because promises to come back soon. he has big plans for himself, but also for his country today in soon i'm still it's near most of a poor the women have gathered their learning to read and write as part of the government initiative to reduce the countries high literacy rate age. samsung means chicken in my lack of a of the, this is important for us women sitting gauntlet lights in the village as hard. the house works, the work in the fields. i'm here because i have no education get total funding. if i learn something, maybe i could have been a teacher or civil servant,
3:50 am
a job in the city. i could have lived somewhere else. everything's just so hard here helping because out of line because of all this stuff. i have many hopes and dreams corners to calm go to pay. i'd love to have decent work. i'm the 1st thing that has been both me and my husband would like to improve ourselves because we're poor. we're starting to get them on a. i'd like our children to be educated so they can have a good career. we couldn't get an education ourselves, but we want our children to be able to the summer and some other run to small kiosk with them and helps out. it's the main source of income for the entire family. it's enough for life, you're in the village. but simon, once more, my, my daughter, well, the same life is my mother. i don't want to get married
3:51 am
a young age. my mother supposed to be in the 4th. got people in the village. tell my family that i should be married, don't think, but my mother says i was married at 12 and always stuff with a lot. i should my daughter also suff. and that way can anybody be lazy after marrying? the woman still usually moves in with her husband's family to look after the home and the children. women's participation in india is labor force has risen by over 10 percent in recent years. but still, around 2 thirds of all women are not in paid work. for simon, that's out of the question, or was it these i want to be a teacher. i believe that the women in the villages shouldn't have such a life full of suffering. and i didn't want to stand on my own 2 feet. i don't want to bound down to any one of them that i want to on my own money and decide what i spend to don't want the man. i don't want to have to ask anyone for money when they get this amount and then i'll put a separate is hoping to get

3:53 am
a rickshaw driver and is a huge supporter of his daughter and her dreams for the future. as how much who's got the i think the report is really she's addressing the problems that face poor people and asking questions to see if the media helps others understand the worries of poor people. they'll try to find out more about the issues that i wasn't able to achieve this but my daughter has and that makes me very happy the in the evening. so been a returns to the slum from her cleaning job. now she has to cook before it gets too dark. there are no lights or electricity here, the

3:55 am
like because his family, anyone earning more than 37000 zeros a year, belongs to the upper class. a group that's tripled to 90000000 over the last decade . the name of the lights that you see here, that you're filming with your camera. if you looked at it from the point of view of a person who lives in poverty, it just looks like a waste of money. like 3 for an adult and digital on a monthly disability, rich people, middle class people who come here for enjoyment. india is the fastest growing consumer market in the world, but this is a handful. having money is greens, of course, you're born into a rich family and lead a happy life as best i mean that can change overnight. in terms of our school today,
3:56 am
you might have money tomorrow, you can be poor. i mean, i'm going to go above all, i see myself as a human being can just end up in so anyone can become written chung or anything as possible. but 1st, you have to be human one could do a diamond and someone who's born with a silver spoon in their most and well, they don't care about the poor. yeah. do. and they're not a good person in my day, and i want to know what's not so so good. they do something this upcoming. everyone has a dream. and every time mine is it one day all become prime minister. even though the near most of the poor people also come together in the evening to the miller, the local fair,
