Cow Race , Cultural sports of Bengal
Each year, the village of Herobhanga (near Canning railway station) in West Bengal organizes Moichara cattle race festival, marking the arrival of monsoon season. It is usually celebrated during mid-June or early July, right when the local farmers begin to cultivate their lands. This photo was captured at the traditional bull racing event held at Canning this year.
