Maharashtra entrepreneur earns Rs. 12L/month just by selling tea
What's the story
Who would have thought that selling tea can be lucrative business? Now an entrepreneur in Maharashtra has proved people wrong. Navnath Yewle, co-founder of the famous Yewle Tea House in Pune, earned Rs. 12L in a month, just by selling tea. Taking a dig at PM Narendra Modi's 'pakoda' remark, he said, "Unlike 'pakora' business, this tea selling business is also creating employment."

Person earning Rs. 200/day selling pakodas is also employment: Modi
Incidentally, over a month ago, PM Modi had garnered much flak after he talked about employment in an interview. "If someone opens a 'pakoda' shop in front of your office, does that not count as employment? The person's daily earning of Rs. 200 will never come into any books or accounts. The truth is massive people are being employed," he had said.
