With patience and care, a group of children sculpt a Shaheed Minar on a roadside in Barishal city. It may not be accurate, but that did not deter them as two of them spiritedly spread clay over the pedestal while others gently hold onto the columns. They said every year before Ekushey February, youngsters in the area build Shaheed Minar on their own to pay tributes to the Language Movement martyrs. This photo was taken from South Kaunia Khan Bari area of the city yesterday. Photo: Titu Das
Dense fog envelopes mango trees in Khulna city.
