Indra Sen's Correspondence with The Mother

11 June 1947

The President of the Workers Union was found smoking in the latrines. He says he cannot work without smoking. What should we do?

I told you at the beginning that it was better to let them go out on the street to smoke.

Let me repeat, in order to be clearer, that it is better to give the workers one or two five-minute breaks (all together and at a fixed time) to smoke on the street. Once in the morning, once in the afternoon.
