​A man who sells various things walking from street to street is a street hawker. He is a familiar figure. He is seen almost everywhere in a village or in a town. He carries his materials on head or in hand or sometimes in a small handcart. He sells toys, cosmetics, ready-made garments, utensils, sweets, ribbons, fruits, etc. His customers are mainly housewives. So, he usually appears at noon or in the absence of the house master. He speaks in different ways, wears colorful dress and sometimes plays flute or raises high voice to draw the attention of his customers. He walks for hours to sell his goods. So he has to toil a lot to earn his livelihood. Though he works hard, he can hardly maintain his family well. But he renders a great service to the society as he carries necessary items to our door.
