BR Gentleman at Benapole 261109

Thursday 26th November 2009 and a local gentleman stands on the platform at Benapole station in western Bangladesh, very near to the border with India. The through rail link has been closed since the Indo-Pakistani war of 1965 (Second Kashmir war).

 

B.N.P. is the Bangladesh Nationalist Party and not, ironically enough, the racist cretins of the UK's BNP. Still, the juxtaposition raised a little smile.
