Popy needs my taxi repaired to get back to work in Rajkot
Popy drives for a living in Rajkot, and a broken clutch assembly has stopped all income for 12 weeks.

I make my living with my taxi. 12 weeks ago the clutch assembly failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $300. Without the vehicle I earn nothing.
I have been borrowing from friends to pay rent, and now I have run out of people to ask.
I support my younger brothers and sisters. Before the breakdown I worked nine hours a day, six days a week. I have been offered extra shifts for the next six months if I can just get the vehicle working.
I have a written estimate from a certified mechanic and will upload it here.
I'll pay the mechanic directly and show you the repaired vehicle in an update.
Where the $300 goes:
• clutch assembly replacement (parts): $220
• Labor charges: $25
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $25
• Towing and inspection: $30
Thank you for reading my story.

Praying for you, Popy. This could happen to any of us. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
keep going. Small businesses are the heart of Rajkot. Hope you're open again soon. Take care.
