Where is Hope

Kamalapur Railway Station's ticket hall reeks of dust and urine, its corners filled with the homeless. Shockingly, many are young children—drugged, starving, or exhausted, mostly asleep. Sadly, they are often abandoned here by parents unable or unwilling to raise them. Bangladesh, Dhaka.
