Extreme weather

Picture used for illustrative purposes.
South Asia always experiences extreme weather conditions, but the start of this year’s summer scorching heatwave has killed at least nine people in India, Pakistan and Bangladesh which is a matter of serious concern (“India and Pakistan swelter, Bangladesh braces for cyclone,” May 25, Gulf Today website).
I am sure the respective governments of the countries are trying their level best to educate people regarding extreme weather conditions as well.
It’s so important that people of India, Pakistan and Bangladesh avoid unnecessary going out in the sun for the sake of their own health and safety.
