Cold, dense fog cripple life in Tarai



SIRAHA: Normal lives in Terai have been adversely affected due to thick fog and cold wave.

Thick fog has blanketed the region for the last couple of days while the cold wave has also occurred.

The increasing cold has also crippled life in the Western Tarai.

The days were sunny despite the dense fog in the morning till last week the weather is severely cold with little to no sunshine since Thursday.

The normal life in the communities has been affected due to the thick fog and cold wave and the people have been staying indoors to keep themselves warm and the poor people are forced to pass their time without warm clothes.

Likewise, a limited number of vehicles are seen on the roads and so is the mobility of people.

Similarly, the morning shift of schools and campuses has been affected due to the cold wave.

As a result, people’s mobility and traffics have gone down while patients with asthma, pneumonia, common cold and fever have increased.

Senior citizens, children, daily wagers and poor people have been particularly affected due to the cold.
