They charge about 2 to 5 rupees per head for one way. Similarly if you carry a bicycle, the rate is about 10 rupees (you + bicycle). For a motorcycle plus you on it, it's about 15 rupees. less lessA circular shaped country boat to cross the river. A huge floating basket is a more appropriate description than calling it a boat.
