He is considered a bane to the Kolis or the fisher women , as he buys fish from Bhaucha Dhakka and sells it from area to area home to home, mind you carries a mobile too, and has a conducive clientele.
And honestly seeing the pathetic conditions of our filthy fish markets ,nobody wants to go and buy fish, take for instance the Bandra Bazar fish market , the ugliest market in terms of cleanliness and hygiene.
The Bhaiya fish seller is filling a vacuum and a demand , none of the State governments have done anything to improve the lot of the Koli community , and the rant of the Koli samaj against the Bhaiya eating into their profits holds no water.
Mutual coexistence is part of our Indian creed in economy too.
An I am the friend of the Kolis or I would not be shooting the pictures or posting their stories of survival.
Some soul searching has to be done ..I could write a lot on this but would welcome a thread of constructive comments and suggestions to improve the lot of the earliest inhabitants the Kolis.
