From the reader's point of view, it appears that he has recorded the characteristics of poverty in great depth through his writings from various angles. Murugadoss struggling to spend a day, Maruthi who is oppressed in the grip of poverty and caste, Vellachi who yearns to learn writing, Brahmanayagam Pillai, a poor worker who wants to save his wife, etc., are some of the storytellers who have brought out the problems of economic marginalization and the lives of the downtrodden through his works.
