The image showcases a small group of hardworking individuals standing proudly on a towering pile of raw cotton balls. With their baskets and heads laden with cotton, these dedicated workers exemplify the backbone of India's textile industry. The setting itself is awe-inspiring, as it depicts the vastness and beauty of the Deccan plateau.
