A red flag flutters in the wind, while two labourers, without wearing any safety gear, work on top of an under-construction footbridge in Aminbazar on the Dhaka-Aricha highway yesterday. The flag is supposed to warn pedestrians of the ongoing construction overhead, but little regard for safety is shown for the workers engaged in the construction itself. Photo: Palash Khan
