This is a large swathe of foul-smelling slime on the Moghbazar side of Hatirjheel lake, one of the very few places in the capital where people go to catch a breath of fresh air. The authorities have taken some measures recently to clean up the glutinous coat, inset. However, only five people have been employed to do what looks like a colossal job. The photo was taken yesterday. Photo: Anisur Rahman
