How many people cried?
How many people died?

Sunderbans submerged

Nearly five thousand starved

Will they die of
Corona
Hunger or
Amphan?

And the animals?
Biodiversity Day — what happened to them?

Lakeside Gardens

No water
No electricity
No internet
Poles broken
Cars shattered

Electricity and clean water?

Hunger
Corona
Amphan

Jobless
Foodless
