Girl reading Dr. Ambedkar’s book at Pune Book Fair

Today is the last day of Pune Book Festival and while collecting garbage, this sister said to the boy sitting at the stall- ‘I want this book of Baap Aadmi, how much did it cost? All the readers in the book festival were highly educated people. Crowds have gathered to buy the book. But in this crowd, the words of this sister fell on my ears.

It came to my mind that “All the celebrities participating in the book festival are on one side and this reader sister is on the other side. When I saw this sister standing with a garbage bag in one hand and a book named #Baap Aadmi in the other hand, tears came to my eyes automatically. I felt that she is the biggest personality of the book festival.
