Bidi

"Bidi"
A young Indian labourer sits in near darkness packing bidis in colourful conical packets and then into boxes at The New Sarkar Bidi Factory in Kannauj, some 200kms south-east of New Delhi. Around 70 million Indians smoke the hand-rolled bidis which are nimbly bound together by workers with khaki-coloured tendu leaves and cotton thread.
