Eat or pay utilities

People of our country are in a state of confusion because they don't have that much resources on the other hand they have many things to do with in their resources, things to make them survive in this world. There are few necessities which a family need in this age. One of the necessity is electricity because it is the basic power source these days and it is necessity of every house. But the increasing  rates of electricity have created a choas among people whether they should pay the bills or cook food for their children.
We have a maid who work in our house. She earns four thousand a month. She supports her husband financially who is working in a textile mill at twelve thousands a month. The couple earns fifteen to sixteen thousand a month for their children. They live in a house of two rooms with their children.
Today when she came to our house her face was a bit depressed. My mother inquired her that is there any problem on which she replied we had received an electricity bill of five thousand and it is impossible for us to pay five thousand a month for electricity because the total income of the house is not more than fifteen thousand. Their family consists of the couple and their two children. A boy who left school in ninth class because his parents could not support him for his studies further and a girl of seventeen years whom marriage is alarming them as the days are passing. Before when they face a difficult financial condition they reduced their expenses by removing their child from school but now they have no option to reduce their expense. I mean they cant stop their children from eating. A family of four people can hardly carry their food within fifteen thousand income rather than paying those luxurious utility bills which actually are not as a result of their luxury.
Unluckily our people had been entangled into such problems so that they have no time for them selves. They cant sit and think about their amusement. All the time they had to think about their survival. In such conditions we can never have a healthy atmosphere in our society. As result we could never produce thinkers.
There are many necessities of a family including food, education of children, health etc which necessary for a healthy life but this family has now even difficulty to fulfill their food which is the first necessity. The children of the family could never have standard education. If they would ever face a health emergency they would have no money to cope with the situation. How would our people survive until this barbarity of price-hiking of utilities continued by the government.
