Gareeb Ki Haaye

Munshi Premchand

"Gareeb Ki Haaye" is a touching narrative that delves into the plight of the poor and the societal indifference towards their suffering. The story revolves around two key characters: a poor farmer named Buddhu and a wealthy, ruthless moneylender named Sukhiya. Buddhu, already struggling to make ends meet, falls further into debt due to a series of unfortunate events. Sukhiya, known for his lack of compassion, continues to press Buddhu for repayment despite knowing his dire situation. The story starkly contrasts the lives of the rich and the poor, highlighting the harsh realities faced by those at the bottom of the social hierarchy. As the story progresses, Buddhu's situation worsens, leading him to a breaking point where he curses Sukhiya. The tale poignantly captures the desperation and helplessness of the impoverished, while also serving as a moral lesson about the consequences of unchecked greed and cruelty. Through "Gareeb Ki Haaye," Premchand masterfully portrays the deep social issues of his time, emphasizing empathy, justice, and humanity. The story remains a powerful reflection on the enduring struggles of the marginalized and the moral responsibilities of those in power. Duration - 25m. Author - Munshi Premchand.
