Have you seen such structures around your city? Of course, not if you are living in Bangalore, a city that seems to be running away from its yesterday towards an uncertain and unknowable tomorrow.
You see them near towns and villages all over Karnataka. They may be found elsewhere too, but I have not seen any.
Guess what they are?
They are stands on which, a weary villager carrying a head load of his wares to sell could unload it for a while - without assistance.
With hardly anyone to use them, these simple public conveniences are waiting to be pushed to the dustbin of history by the next road-widening project?
