Donkey does not savour mangoes

Rumours aside, it’s all something of a hot-selling fruit nowadays. We have been very keen to relish it on these hot summer days.  While we’re sure summer and mango have plenty more major relishing moments tried up regularly bringing the soothing tastes. It is often emphasised that mangoes reduce the adverse effects of heat more effectively. Whether it is wholly acceptable to us or not, we do not avoid relishing this tasty fruit in  ample manner. Concrete details of its rate vary from area to area as accurately as possible. Though this tasty fruit has not been selling at similar rates at all locations, considerate consumers are well-versed in bargaining the best rate.  However, the particular cart sellers seldom lower the rate once fixed by them. This is the peculiarly our traditional course without an iota of hitch. We more often remember poet Ghalib who felt no awkwardness in uttering that the donkeys do not savour mangoes.

Saturday's rains shock Kanpurites


 

On Saturday night, Kanpur was devastated by an abrupt shift in the normal weather. The city was rocked by hailstorms, heavy rain, strong winds and so on. The weather started exhibiting an unexpected pattern simply at the start of the fourth month of April. 

On Saturday (April 4),  undoubtedly, nature's fury descended upon us in an increasing form of torrential downpours, storms, and even unexpected deaths of so many people in different areas, as was recorded.

Only massive losses resulted from these harsher events, which certainly affected the city and the surrounding areas. People had to deal with various issues, including extended blackouts, tree falls, and even fatalities.

The woeful scenario was passed by citizens in distress and discomfort. With bated breath, they had not expected such abominably dire circumstances. 

A sudden change in the weather wreaked havoc in Kanpur  Nagar on Saturday evening. Strong winds, rain, and hailstorms shook the entire city and adjoining areas. 

Since the beginning of April, the weather has been showing an erratic trend. On April 4, nature's wrath came laboriously upon us in its severe form of heavy rains, tempest, and even sudden loss of life. 

Within a very short time, the situation worsened, causing trees to fall, blocking roads, and creating panic among the public. Even the electricity supply got disrupted for a long time. The strong winds were so powerful that large and old trees were uprooted in many areas. Two people were killed, and more than six were injured, as reported. 

Even if the rain in Jajmau was equally heavy, people living on the fourth or fifth floors were stuck since the elevator wasn't working owing to a power cut. However, several definitely made agonising attempts to ascend the higher stories using the stairs. 

The elders felt a great deal of trouble, in addition to the wholly intense darkness that pervaded for a long time.  Were the residents anxiously awaiting an approving change in the weather?  

Northwestern regions are bracing for active weather, with the mountain states anticipating broad rainfall, thunderstorms, and snow at higher elevations.

Meanwhile,  it was also reported that the plains, including Punjab, Haryana, Delhi, and Uttar Pradesh, can expect periodic weather shifts marked by passing showers, lightning, and powerful gusts.

However, the declared opening of an eatery by a tall Buzurg continued despite the very onslaught of natural flurries. It remained an extra topic of conversation in completely wet Jajmau undoubtedly.
