Begum, 45, is a sex worker at Baniashanta brothel at Dacoope upazila in Khulna. Cyclone Amphan devastated her home and adjacent surroundings. The Covid-19 pandemic forced her out of work. Members of the village police announced the incoming Cycline Amphan the day before, requesting everyone to take refuge in the nearby cyclone shelter. She was worried about her house — built outside the dam support —which was newly built, with new furniture and all. But her colleagues urged her to go. She did not move until the last moment, after which she took refuge at a nearby shop, with no belonging. As the cyclone intensified, she pondered shifting elsewhere, but no one would offer her shelter with her furniture. Amphan rendered her homeless. With no food in sight, workers like her were at the mercy of a few people who offered relief in the form of rice, which sufficed for a meal throughout the day. She had to find a house elsewhere. She eventually found a small room to live in, but her source of income did not return, causing her to lead a miserable life. Her lack of income has caused her debts to rise, especially for rent and groceries. She received cash support from UN Women as a victim of Cyclone Amphan, which she used to purchase household essentials and kitchen utensils. She has no family, who would offer her some help or support at her time of need, let alone some food. Before the Covid-19 pandemic, she could earn something, but since the outbreak, she still has not regained her livelihood. For the last six months, she has to rely on whatever relief aid she can get her hands on, and nothing else.
