Answers
Last year I was in Calcutta during summer. As the rainy season drew near, it started raining heavily for many days on end.
So the water level in the river Ganga began to rise and soon it was in flood. Soon the water began to overflow the banks. When we heard of the flood, we, under the organisation of a voluntary social welfare society ‘Help’ planned to visit the flooded villages. It was terrible. There was water everywhere.
The current was strong. Men and animals struggled between life and death. Many things were seen floating in the water. Live snakes were seen being washed away. Here and there we could see the carcasses on the surface of water. Water seemed to be devouring all. Some villagers climbed up the trees to save their lives but they had nothing to eat or drink.
