Stone Collectors' Life in Jaflong, Sylhet, Bangladesh

A man and his wife posing for the camera inside their tine house inside stone workers' village on April 4, 2015 in Jaflong, Sylhet, Bangladesh. Stone workers live a miserable life in and around stone extraction and stone crashing site near Jaflong, Sylhet, Bangladesh. Beside their suffering inside the stone extraction site they also live a very humble and marginal life with their families inside their village known as "Bauler Jhum". They suffer from rain, wind, sun and all sort of natural calamities. They do not have any proper hygienic sanitation system, do not have any school or medical facilities even. Rich people are getting way richer through their business of stones but these poor people are getting poorer everyday. If concerned government agencies do not look into these above mentioned facts then these poor peoples' life will turn into disaster very soon. (Photo by Mohammad Saiful Islam/NurPhoto)
