Floods in Assam
The flood situation in Assam has turned grim.
We remain helpess when faced with natural calamities year after year despite so much of advancement of science and technology. The world, including our own country spends trillions of dollars in buying weapons and making nuclear bombs apparently to protect national boundariies from human enemies! But we can not do enough to build our capacity for disaster preparedness! Disaster after disaster, life goes on like nothing ever happened. Only the sufferers live in eternal trauma and hardship. Really shocking!
