A pet shop owner feeding the animals at his shop in the capital’s Kataban market yesterday. The animals had been suffering from a lack of food and care since a shutdown was enforced in the country on March 26 over Covid-19. Authorities on Monday allowed the owners to keep their shops open for two hours every day to look after the animals, after a photo on the animals’ plight went viral on social media. Photo: Prabir Das
People from low-income families wait for relief on Kazi Nazrul Islam Avenue in the city. With the country in a shutdown for two weeks, many underprivileged people are struggling to get by as they have no work. The photo was taken around 9:00pm on Tuesday. Photo: Sk Enamul Haq
