    A heavy cyclone jolted coastal belt of Bangladesh. Several thousands people died in southern coastal part of the country. Patuakhali and Barguna are two mostly affected districts. Although now I live in Dhaka, I grew up in a village of Patuakhali.

    The cyclone has disrupted our electric supply system. The whole country was without electricity for long 24 hours. Still electric supply can meets only about 50% demand.

    I am posting this message here getting internet access again after long long time.

    Pray for us.

    It was really a SUPER CYCLONE, 220 Km. / h, 2000 (approx.) people died & uncountable people injured by this in this incident. I hope Bangladesh will soon overcome from this mishap.
