Surely you have heard by now the name Harekala Hajabba. He is the orange vendor who was recently honoured with the Padma Shri for his contribution by way of building a school to educate the kids in his village.
His story is inspiring, but we didn't want to provide you, dear viewers, secondhand information about him. So Swarajya writer Harsha Bhat actually went down to visit him at his village. The result was a four-hour-long fruitful conversation.
Here, she narrates Harekala Hajabba's story.

Introducing ElectionsHQ + 50 Ground Reports Project
The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
