Humans create Natural disaster

Moin Uddin


The country is in a severe condition due to floods and landslides – except some other parts of the country. 

People perceive it as a natural disaster but no one analyzed the actual cause of it, it's because of the people themselves. When people challenge the nature then these sorts of consequences occurs and similar cases have occurred in the capital too – the bridges of Kathmandu are not safe to commute and anytime the bridge can collapse.

People are mining the aggregates like sand and stone in excessive amount, due to it –the foundation of pillars and the embankment which is supposed to prevent the overflow of water shifts– which then destroys – and landslides takes place.

It's not the nature that destroys the life and aspirations – it's we (the so called great creation of god) who creates such type of silly endeavor due to lack of forethought. People are greedy by nature and their greed compels them to do such acts and businessmen are the ones who seek profit in every business s/he does and most only see the profit margins, leaving analyzing how that margin rose.

 Have we done something bad? Have we taken over the rights of people? Aren't we doing some mistakes which seems normal but in the long run that can have severe consequences?

They don't see those aspects and tries to fulfill their visions – anyhow.

If we try and calm down and look it to our past – most disaster be it natural calamity that most are facing or a micro problems of our life. It's all because – we want to cross the border to earn much without analyzing the consequences associated.

Had we cried thinking before extracting those sand and pebbles, then today most would have been sipping tea gossiping with their peers regarding stories of their life.

It's not because of nature. It's because of us.
