Severe Storm in Tangail
Mabrur Atiqi, Dhaka, 05 April: A violent storm hit Tangail district yesterday at
about 5 pm. The storm flew at a speed of 150 kilometer per hour and lasted
about an hour. The storm was combined with thunder and lightning. It hit about
twelve villages of the district and demolished almost all of the houses of those
villages.
It
took away the lives of seven people and many were injured seriously. Many trees
were uprooted and the crops were damaged totally. Many domestic animals also
died in the storm. The people of the affected villages have been undergoing untold
sufferings. Most of them are now living under the open sky.
They
are now greatly in need of food, medicine, pure drinking water, etc. The
government and some other helping organisations have come forward to lessen the
miseries of the sufferers, but their help and cooperation is less than the
demand.
