On the road to recovery

The novel coronavirus epidemic has upended the lives of many by taking away their livelihoods. But even amid the crisis, some have resorted to alternative means to maintain their livelihoods. An example of this can be found on the roads of Shahidnagar’s Ghorapatti area in Dhaka’s Lalbagh where women collect discarded plastic bottles after removing its labels. Photo: Mahmud Zaman Ovi
