In addition to the washing machine, Indian women more depends largely the Dhobi [aka washer man] to wash clothes from home. Heavy laundry always is assigned to this curious breed of people [dhobi], who carry their weight to the nearest dhobi ghat and manually launder towels, linens, pants etc.. Crisp ironing clothes and clothes is returned after a week and the following stack lined up for the collection. Indra is a washing machine concept to help the dhobi with washing and make life easier for him. Manual labor is cheaper in India than using electricity and machines. Thus the Indra is designed on this premise. A look at this video at yankodesign.com will give you an idea on how the dhobis function. Incase you are wondering, my dhobi comes in every Monday for collecting the clothes!
