Old and the new: cargo container ship and ancient Chinese fishing nets in Kerala

From the archive record

The New India runs on diesel, spewing fumes, as a cargo ship with containers heads towards Cochin harbour while the old - even ancient - India is run through manual grunt power of fishermen, as they operate the ancient Chinese fishing nets in Kochi, Kerala. Like everywhere else in India, everything co-exists and the fisherman don't give a second thought to the passing shipping behemoth!
