Rohingya refugee and Ramadan: A story of hope of a 16-year-old boy

Muslims all over the globe are observing fasts in the holy month of Ramadan, so is Anamul Haq, a 16-year-old boy from Rohingya (Myanmar) living in a Jhuggi (hut) in Jammu as a refugee this Ramadan. But the reason for us talking about him goes beyond his age. Besides fasting, he works at a local chicken shop in Malik market Jammu, where he does cleaning from 8 am till 8 pm which fetches him Rs 3,000 a month, thus supplementing the income of his father, who works as a laborer, in sustaining the family of nine.
