I had clicked this picture in Dhubri, Assam, India. The last town in India where the Brahmaputra flows before entering Bangladesh. A little too far from the national capital, this town has witnessed reverse progress, esp. after partition when East Bengal became a part of Pakistan and then Bangladesh. Dhubri used to be a major port before partition with inland water services to many major cities, via erstwhile East Bengal. This photo was clicked on the river bank and the person here carries a bamboo wall, which will be used for fencing or to support a clay house’s wall.

I had taken this picture with a 2mp phone camera during an unplanned trip to a village in Assam. Unfortunately I do not have the original photograph anymore. The village predominantly belongs to the Bodo community and on the upper left corner you can see a woman in her traditional clothes, called ‘Dokhna’.
