Officials said that although the intensity of the cold has eased slightly compared to Sunday and Monday, a mild cold wave is still sweeping over the district. The cold conditions are expected to persist throughout the current month, with little likelihood of significant improvement.
Low-income people are bearing the brunt of the cold, while farmers in the haor areas are facing additional difficulties as the Boro paddy cultivation season is currently underway.
