Women construction workers in India

Women construction workers in India work as hard as the men in rough conditions.

In this image you can see the construction workers taking a break from work. Construction and building material is lying around them.

Here is a picture of a young woman carrying a heap of stones to a construction site. A woman helped her heave up the heavy load on to a metal basket on her head.

These women were shot in a small town called Vikramgad with a population of about 4000 people. These are tribal women carrying construction material.
