Steven, I think you are wrong regarding partition, since the rolling stock and Diesel engine looks current ! Maybe, a photo of a passenger train in Bihar ?

Could be, maybe they're biscuit bandits.

Biscuit bandits are old hat.

Banana bandits are the latest thing.

like this one ?

Probably, yes.

Seriously, Hey! It's an unpealed fruit, must be safe, yes?

Nope...

They inject the drug into the banana.

My guess is that the photo was taken during a festival (however, there are no garlands), or maybe after the liberation of Bangladesh in the 1970's.

Elderly Brits may remember George Brown, as deputy leader of the Labour Party .... well one of my friends worked for his wine merchant and put his acid and 'works' to good use ... tired, emotional and tripping ... even the bent and twisted had moments of idealism in those far off days ...

not that I approve of course.

I was thinking the exact same thing, Nattusbs.

Although judging from the picture attached to this article:http://blogs.telegraph.co.uk/foreign...bangladesh.htm maybe it's always that packed
