The writer describes the hard work put in by Babar Ali by placing before his routine. Babar begins the day at 7 in the morning by performing household chores. Though he takes an autorickshaw to commute the first part of the distance between his home and school, he has to walk for five kilometres to reach his school. After school hours, if other boys play football, cricket and other sports, Babar goes to an afternoon school where he is the Headmaster of 800 students. Thus, we see that Babar Ali is a cut above the rest.
