Mr. Dey, a 30yr old and an MR (Medical Representative) of the most reputed medicinal company of India, loves to distribute newspapers early morning door to door. Very few know him as an MR, they know him as a Newspaper delivery man who gets up before the dawn, collects the papers and magazines from suppliers, then starts delivering the newspapers door to door, few people see and greet him good morning and a thanks .... but few don't even feel like greeting him... but one day he was half an hour late for his delivery at bungalow no. 31 of Subhash street and the owner of the house Mr. Yadav misbehaved with him and spoke harsh words too and this was noticed by a 6 yrs old girl of the house. Next day the girl came to receive the paper and asked if they can be friends. Like this they became very good friends and after a month the girl came to know that the newspaper delivery man is an MR in a medicinal company.... then unknowing what does MR mean she asked her father about it. When Mr. Yadav learnt about the newspaper delivery man to be an MR of reputed medicinal company he felt to apologise for his behaviour a month back. And next day he did apologize and asked the reason why he distributes newspapers when he is an MR... the answers shocked him...

He said I began my journey from selling newspapers this gives me immense happiness.... if I'm happy today it's just because of this. Then after returning from his office Mr. Yadav went to Mr. Dey. Mr. Dey brought two hot cups of tea and they started conversation about how it was? Atlast Mr. Yadav's question bubbling all the day was put forward. What was reason you started distributing newspaper? I started distributing newspapers when I was 12 years, at that age boys of my age play games and have fun throughout the day but I had to support my family. My father passed away and at that time we were six members in my family...my mother, my grandmother, two sisters, a brother of my uncle who passed away in an accident and my aunt. We were all in a joint family and this earing was equally divided. My aunt used to work in an NGO, my mother used to stitch clothes and my two sisters helped my grandmother to make handicraft products. And my brother was very small, just 5 years old and studying in nursery. But I felt I needed to earn a little more to support the family. I started distributing the newspaper early in the morning because in those days we had day school. I chose to take up science in class 11 but none supported me. So I supported my self with my earning from paper delivery and started giving coaching classes at the verandah of my house, because I needed money for my education as well as for my sister's. A few of my students were of the houses I used to deliver the newspaper. Because I needed money for my education. I continued this job upto my graduation. But after graduation, I got my desired job, but still I can't leave this job of newspaper delivery. Because this was the only thing to help me get out of all odds and problems of my life and stood beside me when nobody supported me, so now how can I leave this job? I'll continue till my last strength. And then Mr. Yadav finishing his tea asked Mr. Dey's permission to leave.
