N told us that she needed a new stick to clean her teeth with and had gone to the jungle to get some. N is old but not frail and still continues to work every day. N, her son, his wife, and their two sons make up this home. Her grandsons went to school which was only a short walk away, and the family gets its water from a nearby borewell. N’s son, H, worked as a daily wage labourer building drains in Kalahandi - during the first round of surveys, H was away for work and was therefore not recorded as present. Because of the intense cold, H mostly worked in summer. N and her family own two buildings which make up their home. One building has their kitchen and a spare room, and their sleeping quarters are in the other building. Courtesy of the Swachch Bharat Mission, the family also had a toilet on the premises.
