Father tried to carry forward the traditional shoe making, his ancestral occupation in the small village Ghanaur for many years. But, with the advent of the new technology and new trends in shoe industry, his occupation was subject to constant economic pressures. He somehow delayed his surrender to the time when, Gurpreet dhuri was of 24 (age). The father finally gave up and took on to his bicycle and tiffin box to join the contingent of laborers working in the Sugar mill at Dhuri.
