Profitable Pain
Photograph by Jodi Cobb
At Mumbai's Chatrapati Shivaji railway terminal a boy named Krishna (foreground) is one of a stable of child beggars controlled by a network that includes these two women. Because his scarred back draws the sympathy of passersby, Krishna collects more money than uninjured beggars—and the women take every rupee. He sleeps in the station, taking his drinking and washing water from puddles that collect under the train cars, and surviving on scraps of food doled out by his keepers.
