#HumansOfDemonetisedIndia: Stella, The Fish Vendor

stella

#HumansOfDemonetisedIndia: My name is Stella. I’m a fish vendor at Shangumugham, Trivandrum, Kerala. I’ve been selling fish for the past 27 years, and never before have I gone back home after a day’s business with any leftovers. But now things are different. With the scrapping of Rs 500 and Rs 1000 notes, my daily sales have nosedived from a decent Rs 15,000-20,000 to a pitiable Rs 3000.. I’m 60 years old. Will I be forced to look for another job at this age?
