Laksmi is working in a brothel for a lady named mumtaz who is not paying her for the task she is doing meaning that she is not paying her fairly enough. A quote from the book that supports my evidence 
"as soon as you work the 20,000 rupees I paid for you" pg.132. 
This backs up my evidence because  mumtaz only paid 10,000 rupees for the girl.
2) In my novel oppression looks like when mumtaz forces a cup of drugged lassi between  Lakshmi clinching jaws. Mumtaz,is the oppressor and  Lakshmi is the oppressed.
3)This relates to the real world because people get bought out everyday. People also get used for things that are only beneficial to others but not themselves.

Mumtaz did something busy with Lakshmi while staying in their village. It looks like the suspense and mysterious climax from Lakshmi. After Mumtaz worked with Lakshmi, he paid her 100 rupees for the busy jobs they both have done. Mumtaz was the oppressor in the book, and Lakshmi was oppressed. It relates to the oppression in the world around me because I understood about learning people from the past (World History or Social Studies).
