We found in our case study that Rikshaw puller don't take day meal properly during his working our. Many more case studies reported that, on average, a rickshaw puller earns between 150 to 300 rupees per day. But they don't take proper day meal, Therefore we at Human Research & Development organisation (Human India) provide day meal to the Rikshaw Puller. We find that the average monthly income of a rickshaw puller is between 1200 to 4500 rupees. But the earnings vary from day to day and season to season. Almost 90 percent of the rickshaw pullers rent rickshaws from large rickshaw owners on a daily basis. On average, a rickshaw puller spends about 50 rupees per day on rickshaw rent. The rest of his earnings go towards food and medicine, and in some cases, a big portion of the earnings goes towards alcohol and tobacco. Any remaining money is sent home to be saved. We try with our best to support rikshaw puller in kind to provide day meal to few rikshaw puller.
