Bullock Cart - Mode of Transport in Rural India

The Palanquin was used to be the conveyance for noble Indian ladies as well as for Indian landlords during medieval India. A very old form of transport in rural Bengal, the palanquin was carried by four to six sturdy young men. This form of transport was mainly used by the rich as well as women who obderved Purdah. The very mention of the palanquin conjures up the image of a bride leaving for her in-laws.
