#Friday Foto Fiction
Poorvi was the first IAS officer from her city. Her father wrote a letter to her when she asked for a picture.
Dear Poorvi,
I know you are
wondering why I sent you the picture of my dirty hands instead of my face. Darling,
I am not a businessman or a celebrity whose face shows the identity of their
works. I work in a coal mine that has not only blackened my clothes, but also
my skin. I could have sent you the picture of my face, but my dirty black hands
are my real identity. These black hands have helped you to achieve your dreams
and now you are an IAS officer. I am sure this picture of your father’s Black
Hands will help you to maintain a clear image of an IAS officer throughout the
life.
Love
Papa
