Eid-ul-Fitr is knocking at the door. Just couple of days to go. People are leaving town for their native village through highways, railways and water ways. Bus stations & rail stations are crowded than ever. Launches and Steamers are full of passengers.
Journey right now is a great hassle. But yet people are ready to go through the hassle just to celebrate the Eid with friends, family and relatives. Eid is a day of joy. The day become more enjoyable when celebrated with family. It is great memory to go to the eid prayer wearing new dresses and holding father’s or son’s hand. Again it feels great to see happy faces around you.
But it is not the case for everyone. In every eid, at least one or two major accidents takes place. Eid become a life time tragedy for the families who looses their members in those major mishaps. Even so people are still careless about the safety of their journey.
The rate of accidents have increased in last few weeks. Huge number of people have started to move out from the city before any safety measure is taken to stop accidents. Now self-awareness is the most important factor to ensure personal safety.
Many of my friends are moving out too. I’m requesting them and all other people to be careful in the journey and take safety measures if possible. I hope this eid will not turn into a tragedy for anyone. My friends, have a safe journey and enjoy the Eid with friends and family. I will see you after the eid. Till then stay well and take care. 🙂
