With children at the front, a train passes through a kitchen market, set up illegally on the railway lines in the capital’s Jurain area yesterday. The authorities had evicted the vendors around a month ago but they have come back again. Every time a train crosses the place, the vendors have to remove goods and tents from the line. Such disregard for safety sometimes proves to be fatal. Photo: Rashed Shumon
