His American washing machine was delivered to his new home on an Indian rickshaw and the Indian repairmen who are called &#8220;mystery men\u201d were about to have a try at installing it.<\/p>\n<p>Back home, Hughes, a specialist in rural economics, had a comfortable teaching post with the University of Arkansas. But India\u2019s problems in his field were a challenge to him, and he accepted a two-year assignment from the. Ford Foundation to teach at Cuttack\u2019s Utkal University.<\/p>\n<p>The Cuttack to which Hughes brought his wife and four small children in a city of 1,00,000, raddled with dirt, disease and
