I don’t know whether it’s the fallout of Global Warming that has started or not, but it was sheer bad luck of a small and beautiful nation Bangladesh for sure that the cyclone ‘SIDR’ had struck this nation on 16th Nov 2007. Bad luck because it could easily be West Bengal. And I can’t imagine what would be the massacre that would happen to my beautiful state then. As I can’t imagine what is the actual condition of Bangladesh right now. Yesterday, I read in one of the newspaper that electricity and telephone lines are all destroyed or not-working. Obviously then we are not getting the actually facts and results of the casualties. This morning I saw in one news channel that foods and water are being distributed from helicopters and people literally fighting for existence there. I don’t know how that mother with her child in her womb can get her foods.
It’s already 1800 people dead, Govt. saying. It’s not hard to imagine that the numbers are going to be more. But what are we waiting for before helping them? Why we can’t understand that this could be easily be India in place of Bangladesh.
