How has the Chenoy family financial situation affected Murad and Jehangir?

Both Murad and Jehangir are concerned about their parents' financial situation. Jehangir tries to talk Murad into selling their schoolbooks so they can make money to help their parents. Murad says what they would make would not be enough. Jehangir takes bribes as homework monitor and adds the money he makes to the budge envelopes at home.
