Amphan’s Dread
Amphan’s Dread
The year of 2020 was
indeed a dreadful year for all of us. Well, we don’t even know how the present
year will be. Still, let’s hope for the best as usual.
Let’s take a trip down
the memory lane.
Yes, we are in 2021
right now. But can we ever, can we ever forget the disasters of the previous
year at all? Corona’s raid, Amphan’s dread instilled utmost panic in the minds
of all of us.
I can still recall the horrible
night of Amphan. There was no electricity at all for a pretty long span of
time. Although the span varied from place to place, the horror was the same
almost to all and sundry.
The roaring voice of
the cyclone was audible from inside the rooms. Though the room was locked up in
all respects, we could not get rid of the horror.
That night, so many
people were rendered homeless; so many people became bereft of their near and
dear ones. It was a truly existential crisis. For the first time ever, I felt
such insecurity from within.
It was not I; it was everybody,
because the super cyclone left nobody untouched with its dire disastrous
consequences.
