Struggle of life in Jyeshtha heat

In the month of Jyeshtha, nature adopts a severe demeanor. The sun unleashes its fiery rays upon the sky, causing the air to become oppressive and scorching. As Rabindranath Tagore eloquently stated, "Jyeshther khorroddroi Jyeshther oshrushunno rodon"—during this period, nature appears to emit a silent yet fervent heat. Consequently, the phrase "struggle of life in the heat of Jyeshtha" transcends mere seasonal description; it vividly illustrates the daily survival challenges faced by the common populace of Bangladesh.
