    Mahesh, 11, works at a local market in east Bangalore every day. He struggles to combine work with school, getting up at 4am every day to work for a few hours before the school day. His family migrated from neighbouring state of Andhra Pradesh to look for better earning opportunities.

    “When I was eight, my mother asked me if I could work. She didn’t force it on me, but I understood her need,” says Mahesh.
