Damocles’ Sword Amid Waters by Riddhima Sen

In a country whose media is selective towards issues, and absolutely insensitive towards the others, the status regarding the floods were not available online for quite a long amount of time. The floods have absolutely destroyed the city of Silchar. The ravished cities and waterlogged streets are proof of how the natural calamity ended up destroying mundane life.

The issues which need to be intervened into are equally deserving of attention , limelight and assistance .
