Kolkata, India – It’s 12pm on a weekday, and the lane in the city’s Tangra neighbourhood facing the sole bovine slaughterhouse in Kolkata is empty. Run by the city’s municipal corporation, the colonial-era building in the capital of the eastern Indian state of West Bengal looks like a fortress with its giant iron gates locked from the inside. A peek through a gap between the gates reveals schoolboys running around and playing in the vast empty campus. “Those boys scale the walls and enter the slaughterhouse ever since it got shut down in May,” says Mohammad Mehmood Alam, manager of a roadside eatery opposite the facility that mostly caters to daily wage labourers, taxi and autorickshaw drivers. He’s still getting used to the desolation, he says.
