Motilal’s wife Sunehri says they have sent some consignments by night to the nearest point from where transport is available, some 50 km away. “But now the fresh leaves are drying up before maturing,” she adds. “We have to take great care of the plant. We sprinkle curd, milk and besan on the leaves to keep the insects away. But where is the water?”
“The authorities have asked us to wait till Sunday, but most leaves will dry up by then. Let’s hope that it will rain well so that we water the plants at least once in a day.”
