On the morning of February 9, a large crowd gathered near the Mirpur-1 Eidgah field.
The air was filled with commotion and the festive rhythm of a band party. Rickshaws and cars came to a halt, and pedestrians stopped to watch.
Suddenly, an open-top vehicle emerged from the crowd. A woman stood inside, waving to people lining both sides of the road.
A five-year-old girl standing with her mother on the sidewalk waved back.
The mother, Swapna Akhtar, said their house was nearby. Her daughter insisted on coming out after hearing the band. When they arrived, they realised it was an election campaign procession for Sanjida Islam Tulee.
