Severe cold has disrupted daily life in Chuadanga, where the temperature dropped to 10.7 degrees Celsius on Wednesday morning, according to the local weather observatory. The biting cold has particularly affected the homeless and low-income workers, forcing many to stay indoors unless absolutely necessary. Rickshaw pullers and day laborers reported that passenger numbers and work opportunities have sharply declined due to the freezing conditions.

Local residents described the situation as extremely difficult, with cold winds worsening the chill. Many laborers still venture out in search of work but often return home empty-handed. The weather office reported 93 percent humidity at 6 a.m. and 91 percent at 9 a.m., indicating persistent damp and cold air.

The ongoing cold wave continues to strain vulnerable groups in the district, with no immediate sign of relief mentioned in the report.
