Homeless brave the cold
Night
temperatures stay below 2 degree C and there are thousands of migrants and poor homeless people in Phagwara. Circumstances force them to sleep on pavements even in the extreme cold weather while luckier ones are under quilts to sleep snugly in their beds.
Pardeep and his companions collect waste paper, cardboard boxes and other waste material and make a bonfire. The warmth helps them sleep for a while before the chill of the night takes over. They snuggle close to each other to keep warm.

Illicit
relations led to many murders in Kapurthala district. Of 20 cases solved last year, 12 were of illicit relations. The involvement of women in murders has also increased as 10 accused were women.
While in most of the cases, man or woman killed his or her spouse to continue or snuff out the relations . In a case, a widow eliminated her parents-in-law as they had objected to her illicit relations. In another case, an unmarried girl was killed by her mother, sister and brother for having an affair with a boy.
