Hard time looking after family

Jokhan Chaudary is originally from Motihari, India. He is unsure of his exact age, but knows that he is over 50. He got married at the age of 16 in India, and came to Nepal soon after. He has been in Nepal since then. He sells coconuts slices in the streets of Kathmandu. Although he doesn’t earn much, he says it is enough to feed himself. He has a wife and five children, two sons and three daughters. His son is breadwinner of the family. Jokhan never misses to visit India during the Chhath festival as it is their major festival and enjoys the celebrations in his home town. He carries his stall of coconut slices all around the city from 9 am till 6 pm.
