Jatindranagar, Bangladesh, a quaint...

" Jatindranagar, Bangladesh, a quaint village of approximately 100 people, all extremely poor.  Most work as farmers and only make enough food to feed their family, the problem with the village is that when it floods, which it does very often, it wipes out farm land and houses, some people even die. Once a family’s livelihood has been ruined they have to travel far, without food or a safe place to sleep, to the nearest city, about 24 miles away. One woman said “My husband used to be a successful farmer growing seasonal crops. We were a happy family earning about 385 to 514 dollars per season (of four months). But high salinity has rendered us penniless”, Naimul haq, Inter Press Service (Haq 9). "

It would be naive to view another country with the lens of a single village. In terms of the land, Bangladesh offers many natural beauties that flourish in the tropical climates. Our lush flora, diverse wildlife, and numerous archaeology sites are also home in and around those villages. It is from these extreme conditions of seasonal floods and dry periods between them that give even Jatindranagar a beautiful landscape that flourishes and dies in breath.

There is a need to mention the more tourist-attracting side of the country simply because this article makes the area sound desolate and cursed with the inability to harbor life. Though the problem with high salinity in what was once farmable land is a duly noted concern, one should not forget the life that still thrives on the other side of the flood zone.
