caption_attribution_description: English: Sewage system in Tharparkar. The old urban houses may have such open passages even inside house while newly constructed houses might have covered or underground drainage pipes but after getting out of premises or house the drainage passage is mostly open as seen in the picture. The children or adults playing cricket often get their ball dipped in such gutters but with no option continue playing after wiping or washing it. While rainy days it is like game of minesweeper where either you get spoiled or you are safe.
