She brings potable water from a rivulet which is 40ft below her hamlet. She, a tribal woman of Tripura, India, daily wakes up at early morning and moves down the terrain to rivulet. She does not care about purity of water. Because, she has no alternative choice to get potable water. The Government is trying its best to supply potable water to far flung villages, however, supply is too short of demand. Lack of pure drinking water is a major cause of stomach related problems in hill areas of Tripura. Tribal people living in the forest areas are too poor to buy a filter. So even after more 65 years of Independence of India, Many Tribal people of Tripura, like many other tribal, living without having access to pure drinking water.

Incredible India is a country of contrasts, if so glow, gold, precious stones and see the movies fast Bollywood brand in contrast, is much poverty, rags, disease and misery through the suburbs, away from the palaces of former Maharajah. It's not: Indians are beautiful women, Indians and very religious landscape in the north most of all, near the Himalayas are unique in the world. I never visited India, and I do not think I will ever be done, but what impressed me, creature interested in everything that spirituality as a people was incredible depth of their religion, the creative power that made to protect the world as a masterpiece of the great temple of Angkor or beauty, unearthly I would say, the Taj Mahal. In my mind it associate itself spiritualized image of immortal love. Only well.
