Using binoculars, two tourists look towards Dawki town of India from the bordering area of Jaflong in Sylhet yesterday. A local, Nazrul Islam, said he used to earn Tk 700 to Tk 1,000 every day by renting out binoculars to tourists in Jaflong, but his income has reduced significantly since the pandemic struck. He, however, said tourists have started returning lately.
