Nagarpurakkaadu [Tamil]

By Adithya Anbarsu

How many categories can workers be divided? They can be divided into many categories. The novel talks about the workers who are at the bottom of any number of categories. They cannot be distinguished by religion, caste, language, or race. They can be commonly called people below the poverty line (BPL). Just because of these people running, it seems that the earth rotates. Why because, imagine a world without them. It can be compared to a bullock cart without cows. If it so, then whom the coachman will beat with his whip. Without them, nothing would be complete here. These people should be admired first and foremost in the world. But is that really the case here?

Tirupur... The city that has flown the flag in the textile industry. "Nagarpurakkaadu" talks about the pleasures, surprises, desires, needs, betrayals, and hopes of five different people. The lives of three categories of workers: those born and brought up in the city, those who come from other districts for work, and those who come to work from other states due to poverty.

What does this city teach them? Does it fulfill their wishes? Or let them down?
