Look at the picture on the left taken from today’s TT. If the dress the man wears seems familiar, so it is, never mind he is standing waist-deep in water.
Well, it happened yesterday in Bangur, the perennial water-logging destination that never escapes the fury of a downpour. As you can rightly guess, living in such a misery makes the life hell.
On top of that if the water doesn’t ebb for days together like it did on the wake of Sunday’s battering, you may as well start starving because you simply cannot move without the help of something like a boat.
In comes help this time from Big Bazaar. What this man is doing is announcing to the marooned residents that if orders are placed, supplies will be reached to them without their coming down.
A novel approach, won’t you say! No prize guessing that it is the result of retail competition on the anvil. Even if that is so, let’s for the moment give kudos to the Big Bazaar for making it happen.
