Policemen ask a bus to stop on Dhaka-Chattogram highway in the capital’s Rayerbagh area during a mobile court drive by Bangladesh Road Transport Authority (BRTA) yesterday. Several buses were fined for taking excessive fares from passengers, not having fitness documents and illegally using horns that make huge noise. Inset, a man removes pneumatic horns underneath a bus during the drive. Photo: Prabir Das
With sheer excitement, nine-year-old Meem plays on a swing hanging from bamboo poles by the Buriganga river in the capital’s Kamrangirchar area. Children living in the area do not have a field or any other places for recreation, so they try to find joy in such little things. The photo was taken yesterday. Photo:
