Sinu Begum, 75, squatting from exhaustion while waiting in line for hours in front of an OMS truck near the Sheikh Abu Naser stadium in Khulna yesterday. Struggling to cope with the hike in the prices of essentials, she, like many others, has to buy necessary commodities at subsidised prices from such trucks. PHOTO: HABIBUR RAHMAN
Waste from factories nearby pollutes the Karnapara canal in Savar’s Ulail area. Locals also dump waste from homes in the canal, obstructing water flow. The canal merges with the Dhaleshwari, eventually polluting the river too. The photo was taken recently. Photo: Palash Khan
