Today I spent some good time with this Lohar family who belong to Chittor, Rajasthan but live here in Gurgaon in temporary huts and do their traditional smith work and also sell clay pots and products for their living.

Their family consists of 4 kids with their parents and their grand mother, the father and elder son mostly do the smith work while their only daughter helps in firing the coal which is used to make the steel/iron red hot. Lot more to share about the family who were very very hospitable and were kind enough to offer me dinner. Thank you very much, I will see you again this Sunday.
