The Rainy Season in Bangladesh
There
are six seasons in Bangladesh. Each season consists of two month. We
hear new sounds and enjoy new scenes in each season. We forget monotony
of life and start our daily work anew. The rainy season is one of the
six seasons. The season comes after the summer.
Ashar and Shraban are the months of rainy season. In fact rain sets in our country in the middle of June and lasts up to the middle of September.
People welcome the rainy season heartily. The sun shines hotly in the summer. Ponds, lakes and canals get dried. There is scarcity of water. People want to get rains. And the rain sets in at last. People heave a sigh of relief.
In the rainy season the sky is overcast with deep black clouds. The sun can hardly be seen. The rivers are full to the brim. The earth and the roads are wet and muddy. People cannot move easily.
Bangladesh is mainly an agricultural country. Her economy and prosperity depend on agriculture. Again our agriculture depends on the mercy of nature that is rain. If there is sufficient rain, the joys of the farmers know no bound. They plough their lands and sow seed in time. Our farmers cannot reap a good harvest if it does not rain in time. Without rain water jute and paddy cannot grow. Without rain water our agriculture is lifeless. Rain water washes away the filth and clears the atmosphere. Our poets are fond of the season.
There is no unmixed blessing on earth. The rainy season has some demerits too. Sometimes it rains heavily for days together.
As a result the rivers overflow their banks and cause flood which brings about untold sorrows, sufferings and miseries. There is water everywhere. Roads become muddy. Due to incessant rains people cannot go out. Normal course of life is stopped. People are to use umbrellas and move by boats. Student cannot go to schools and colleges. Different diseases like malaria, diarrhea and dysentery brad out in an epidemic form and carry away heavy tolls of human life for occasional flood. The life of the poor and the working class become difficult. Snakes also come out in this season, bite people and cause death.
The rainy season is the most important and useful of all the seasons in our country. Agriculture which is the life blood of our economy depends on this rain.
