Six people were killed in related accidents. The flood caused the city to become stuck, schools and offices could not open and many people were trapped in the house. Meanwhile, many parts of Bangladesh fall into drought due to less and less rainfall.
Last week, the government ordered free electricity to farmers to pump groundwater for irrigation when drought threatens crops. Bangladeshi farmers organize special prayers to pray for rain to land.
