Description:I have two elder sisters and a younger brother.I am from a middle class family. I was living in an extended family in India with parents, grand parents and uncles. My father was a retired military officer. He served in the Second World War and then retired after a few years. He started farming at a family farm. I went to primary school in my village, Sanghwal and then to high school in Alawalpur. The school was about two and a half miles from my village. We walked to our school every day.When we came back from school, our parents used to wait for us to help them in the farming. I passed Matriculation in 1953 and went to college in Jalandhar city about 9 miles from my village. We used to go to college on a bicycle because we could not afford public transport. I worked in Punjab Roadways in Jalandhar for two years and also helped in the farm. This is a picture of my extended family.
