A tent-like hut stood on the side of the road in Malda. It was a hut with a roof supported by bamboo poles that served as a food stall. I peeked inside and saw a skinny, skinny man working there. It was difficult to determine whether he was thin due to hard labor or whether he was originally thin. His cheeks were wonderfully thin and he had a stubble. This man noticed me and stood next to a bamboo pole and looked at the camera.

In India, bamboo is often used to support the pillars of huts and other structures. This stall was the same. But I can't help but feel that I didn't see any bamboo bushes when I walked around. Since there are so many bamboo poles, they should be around somewhere. It is a little strange.
