INDIA. New Delhi. 2009. People waiting in line for water where a local Brahmin, Lakhan Lal MORKAR, distributes water in Nehru camp. It is common for people in the slum to get up as early as 3am to start their daily hunt for the scarce water. Lakhan charges familys 200r per month for access to this borewell water, used for drinking. He basically controls who he gives to. As with many other Brahmins in the camp, the pump is located outside his house, so people can only get when he attaches his own pump, usually from 6.30am to 7.30 am. Neighbors are essentially at his mercy for their water usage.
