Cycle rickshaws are still an important form of public transportation in India. But strangely enough, I have only seen mere rickshaws without bicycles in Kolkata. Perhaps people outside of Kolkata have realized that cycle rickshaws with bicycles are easier for motorists and get them to their destinations faster. Even in Malda, there were a lot of cycle rickshaws on the road, but not a single rickshaw.
As we walked around town, we saw cycle rickshaws everywhere. They were all pedaling under the blazing sun, carrying customers. And the shadows of the cycle rickshaws were also moving back and forth on the road surface.
