Farmers of Kanchan Nagar in Chattogram’s Chandanaish upazila carrying freshly harvested guavas to the wholesale markets lining the Dhaka-Chattogram highway, where they will make Tk 1,200-2,000 per two sacks. From there, the fruits are distributed across the country. However, growers say the yield this year was considerably less as guava trees have been adversely affected by brick kilns mushrooming near the orchards (not in picture). The photo was taken recently.

This biker went against the traffic while crossing the Mohakhali level crossing when the gate was closed and was almost run over by the train. He managed to stop between the gate and the train at speed. Such recklessness often leads to lives being lost. The photo was taken from the Mohakhali flyover yesterday. Photo: Prabir Das
