Floding Chair
At the age of sixty, when most people think of retirement and a leisurely life, Khimjibhai thought otherwise. Apart from pursuing farming, he keeps looking for new and simple ideas for making the life of labourers and the common man more meaningful. Khimjibhai noticed that people naturally tired waiting at the bus-stop for long periods; they even resorted to looking around for bricks to sit on. He has devised a folding mini-seat that is compact enough to be contained in a bag or purse. It is particularly helpful during long-distance journeys in trains and buses which have limited seating. It also allows one to be seated while milking cows.
