People / The Iconic Desert Life of Gujarat

A Rabari herdsman is driving his cows migrating to another region in search of water and pasture for their cattle through arid dusty land in Kutch, Gujarat. These semi-nomadic herders spend eight months of the year criss-crossing sparse pasturelands with their livestock in a continual quest for fodder. During the monsoon season, they generally return to their home villages as more new grass grows closer to home during the rain season.
