Construction of a 208-metre bridge over the Titas river in Akhaura upazila of Brahmanbaria remains incomplete even after six years since the work began. As construction continues to drag on, thousands of people from four to five villages on both sides of the river are still dependent on boats. The photo was taken recently. Photo: Masuk Hridoy

A farmer waters winter vegetable seedlings in Rajshahi’s Durgapur upazila. Although winter is still three to four months away, farmers have already begun working on seasonal vegetables, with cauliflower, cabbage, and radish already reaching local markets. The seedlings will be transplanted after about a month. The photo was taken yesterday. PHOTO: AZAHAR UDDIN
