Team XPD 2470 visits villages in Rural West Bengal en route to Siliguri

The flair of rural India was on full display when the Team was on en route to Siliguri from Kolkata. The team interacted with the people and mingled with great spirit as they enjoyed the flair of rural India. From young kids to men with overgrown platted hair, the colours and spirit of rural India was on full display. 

First up the team met and had tea with the villagers of Kalamkari Village which has about 300 families with about 1000 people in all. Next up they stopped in Muratpur which looked more like a tribal settlement but in reality is just a rural village that goes about its merry way with its limited resources. 

Enjoy the exclusive pictures as the team is en route to Siliguri.
