Dhaka—the city of mosquitoes
We do not know what to say except hanging our heads with deep shame for the invasion of the country by mosquitoes due to unhygienic atmosphere. Dhaka has become covered with them. Even a Malaysian air line flight was delayed because mosquitoes had to be removed from inside the aircraft.
We are continually hearing that the country is prospering, may be prospering of the insects are one of the sign of it because nothing else is visible.
At one time there was not a single mosquito in Dhaka. May be people will think it is a fairy tale but it is the fact. How everything is deteriorating fast, with sinking hearts we are watching the scenario.
