These extraordinary photos were published last year, March 2010, on International Women’s Day in The Hindu here and here . They show a group of tribal women drawing water from an agricultural well at Govind Tanda in Karepalli mandal (division) of Khammam District, Andhra Pradesh.

Thanks to V. Madhusudana Rao of Access Livelihoods Foundation for the tip.
