Since the outbreak of coronavirus in March 2020, lakhs of people have lost their jobs and means of livelihood. While some chose unlawful ways to earn money, others have been forced to take up odd jobs to eke a living. One such inspiring story is of a 14-year-old boy from Mumbai.

After his mother lost her job amid the COVID-19 crisis, the 14-year-old boy, identified as Subhan, gave up his studies and started selling tea. Subhan took up the odd job to help his mother and ensure his sisters get to study via online classes. "My mother is a school bus attendant but schools are closed so we're facing a financial crunch," he said.
