Question
What differences did Nandita find between getting water from the public tap and in the village?
Solution
For getting water from the public tap, Nandita had to get up at 4 o’clock and stand in a queue. There were many fights for water at the public tap. However, in the village, there were no fights for water due to the presence of rivers and ponds from where people could take plenty of water.
