Kolkata Rickshaw IND2748

Kolkata is among the only places in the world where fleets of hand-pulled rickshaws still ply the streets navigating the many narrow and bustling lanes, ferrying packages to bazaars, vegetables and chickens to the markets, and children to school. Rickshaw wallahs have been inextricably related to Kolkata’s cultural fabric yet are fast disappearing.
