In Benglur for a week.
It's easy to recognise a person who is new to the city. It's the clothes a person wears and these days you will see a lot of people dressed like Hanumanthappa near construction sites across the city. The men usually wear simple, sweat-soaking, collarless, cotton shirt with a bright coloured band with a simple stitched pattern on the shirt pocket. They are yet to acquire clothes stitched in the city.
According to Hanumanthappa, it doesn't rain enough in his village, called Pulioor in the almost-arid Yadgir Taluk of Gulbarga District. So he's come to Benglur where he has a few family members who work as construction labourers. The 'Biradari' has allowed him to get a job at a construction site, on arrival. And daily wages, which is something agriculture cannot provide. Once he settles down, he plans to go back and bring his wife and son.
