Heera Deepa and Susheela work the fields, cut grass, tend cattle, and care for their families. They contribute as much as men towards sustenance of their families and the economy of their villages. But their labour is rarely recognised as work. The reason is as inescapable as it is simple ' they are women. And so, they never stop working even when they are sick, and never have their sickness taken care of till the work begins to suffer.
