Migrant worker of Punjab by Dakku Singh
So, Punjab is the 'rich' heart of India with factories, farming and lavish life style of Punjabi's. But dig a little deeper and you will uncover a hidden, dark and ugly side. Majority of 'workforce' in Punjab is comprised of Migrant workers such as this man in the photo. Often paid less than £25 a month and working to the bone in the fields so the rich landlords can get richer.. Despite a hard, 16 hr day in the fields, he rides his bicycle home with pride and a smile on his face. --------------- SETUP --------------- The sun had already set, but there was still some redness in the sky along with the stars shining through.
