| Longest and Hottest, June 21 turns double-trouble for Jammuites | | | SIDDHARTH
EARLY TIMES REPORT
Jammu, June 21: A particular event or an occasion signifying an important day in a calendar has something to debate over and even cherish about.
21st June, as per the Christian calendar and the globe's elliptical movement on its axis bringing India's position face-off with the Sun looking into mother earth's eyes directly however has started bringing double-troubles.
Being the hottest and the longest, it generally is a day of sweltering and cursing.And Jammu standing to this testimony breathed and panted at 45 +.today.
" Though the beauty of the day is that the temperature reaches its zenith today, yet the past sufferings of the even much hotter days in Jammu has made the people swear and curse the camouflaging of the weather that is taking its toll on us," said Harmeet Kaur, a collegiate whose Birthday too falls on this day. "I am only celebrating it over glasses of chilled water," she mourns.
Though the heavenly and scientific array of the solar system having placed Earth as a planet with life on it is precisely designed to make it workable according to the environs, yet the fast transitioning of weathers due to alleged global warming has disturbed the arrangements inviting trouble for the living beings here.
"It is all due to fiddling with the natural settings by the human beings itself that the world is subjected to a disastrous change. 21st June being the hottest day due to the planetary movement of the earth vis-à-vis Sun is a fixed terrestrial phenomenon that has now become more of mourning rather than a day of eventful occasion," says an environmentalist.
The other aspect of the Day being the longest one too has its feature attached to the same terrestrial arrangement of earth's axis inclined maximum towards the Sun thus opening to more exposure of the light and hence the Day also.
"Nobody would appreciate to present his or her pleasure to have enjoyed the hottest day on the naked roads of Jammu, but then erratic power supply and dry taps on this particular day as well as the other hot days of the June would only add to the woes of the people," said Ragini Verma, a social science teacher in a private school.
A migrant having been forced out of his homeland land and dwelling in a tin-roof tenement on the outskirts of Jammu without power and adequate water and not a resource to purchase a gadget like cooler to ward off this killing heat can be an ideal entity to provide a quote on longest and hottest day of June 21st .
And with a pathetic look he says, "What does this day means to us in this "House" is a nightmarish occurrence to us which we are experiencing every year since past twenty years" .
