The Journal of the National Indian Association in Aid of Social Progress in India August 1881

1881

[...] To the eyes of the pilgrims the revered sources of the Ganges and the Jamna are thus opened out and they flock to the sacred bathing steps amid the temples of Hardwfir. [...] When one has added to this number the idividuals in the family of each who assist in the cultivation of the poppy crop and the workpeople employed in the factory (some 3 000 in the busy months ") one gets a total of somewhere about 328 000 dependent upon the manfacture of opium for support.
