Wages paid to the adivasis are strictly controlled by contractors who procure tendu leaves &mdash; used to roll beedis &mdash; and sell them to traders. According to one contractor, adivasis were paid as low as 80 paise (figures from 2006) to collect 100 leaves. On a average, a worker, at best, collects 100 bundles a day; that is Rs 80 for a day&rsquo;s of hard work.<br /> <br /> Fourteen bundles of tendu leaves make a kilo, which is then sold at Rs 15.70.
