Tribal Working Children near the Poshina Shrine, Gujarat, India


This was taken at the Tribal Shrine outside Poshina in Gujarat which shows more than 2000 terracotta horses which are offerings to the local Goddess. These small children came to gaze at us. I was distressed to see such young children working in this way. The basins of rubble looked so heavy and the children so frail.
