Humanity at the time of flood.
In my previous article I have discussed the flood conditions of Bangladesh. Condition has become worse in the last two days. Water level is rising. Houses are being sunked. Humans as well as animals are screaming for help. They want to live. Everything is under water there. Crops are already destroyed. Such an inhumane situation.
But in this time people from other areas especially from the capital, are creating examples of great humanity. So many people have gone there to help the suffering people. They are working alongside the national military forces. My today's topic is the humanity shown by the people at the time of this flood.
The flood has broken many years' records. Yesterday I read an article where I found that in the last two days the rainfall record of Meghalaya is 2500 millimeters. And the water of the rain has come to the northern part of Bangladesh through the hills. Everything is under water there. You must be crying if you see the situation there.
The Bangladesh government called the military to help the people two days ago. Military is working patriotically. People of Bangladesh will remember them forever. They are also creating examples of humanity.
The Bangladesh army is mainly working to take people in the safe shelter from the affected area. They are doing it with life risk. Battalion from Dhaka, Comilla and Sylhet are working together to tackle the worst situation. The Bangladesh army is working with boats, life jackets and aid in the situation. They are rescuing affected people with their boat. They are taking life risks. Government aid is also distributed by them now. People have lost everything now. They don't have any place to live, any food to eat. Military is taking care of these as well as so many volunteers. The Navy and coast guard are also working to overcome the situation. Even the air force is also working with their high quality helicopters so that no life can be lost.
A few days ago I posted an article about the fire accident that happened in a depot in Bangladesh. Where I showed the humanity of common people during the time of danger. It happened this time too. People are helping those helpless people by themself.
So many youngsters of Bangladesh are working on the front line. For example, five youngsters have donated 6.3 million Bangladeshi Taka in this regard. Which is really a huge amount. They are also helping people by rescuing them from the affected area by boat.
So many young volunteers went there to help people. They have started a hotline. After getting any call for help they run to the place to rescue. They are creating great examples. The Nations will remember them.
They have conquered the fear of death, I think. There are so many risks of death in this work that they are doing. Like there is a risk of snakes at the time of flood. Another one is sometimes an electric wire can be cut off and which can cause heavy shock and death. But the brave people are not afraid of that. They are real heroes.
There is a dark side too. Some people are taking advantage of the situation and getting benefits. Even some are doing criminal activities in this situation. There is some news like this, some groups of criminals are going to a house. Telling them that they have bought aid for them. But when they are opening the door then they (house owner) are seeing that they (outsiders) have come for robbery. Which is really shameful for humanity. People are dying in shortage of food and water and some people are getting advantage.
Anyway, in of the day humans need to stand beside humans at the time of danger for the sake of humanity. Pray for my country. We are really passing the worst time.
I'm glad that there are people who have showed help to the affected ones and hope those people who take advantage of this situation will come to realize that humanity is more important and should be prioritize not those bad things that they want to do
