'Mini Bangladesh' rickshaw-pullers pay price for Bangla turmoil, seek other jobs
Sunday, 15 December 2024 ()
Rickshaw pullers in Kolkata's 'Mini Bangladesh' are facing a 75% income drop due to strained India-Bangladesh relations. The decrease in Bangladeshi tourists has forced many, who once earned Rs 700-800 daily, to seek alternative jobs like cargo loading to survive and support their families. Visa restrictions offer little hope of a quick recovery.
