Blood-soaked love note under rubble of Rana Plaza
"I love you. My love is only for you." These were the words written by Asha in a letter to her lover Al-Amin. Al-Amin was killed in the collapse of Rana Plaza in 2013. Though sorrowful, the truth is, this letter of love was found in Al-Amin's pocket after his body was recovered. On that tragic day, Al-Amin's veins were soaked with the essence of love. April 24 marks the 11th anniversary of the Rana Plaza collapse. After all these years, Asha might settle her life, perhaps with somebody else. Everything seems somewhat normal. But the glowing writing on the crumpled paper says otherwise. Maybe Asha still thinks about Al-Amin in her own way. On April 24 every year when the anniversary of the Rana Plaza collapse arrives, Asha, like others, perhaps feels her heart heavy with the pain of losing loved ones. She lets out a long sigh of grief. However, she doesn't find herself saying those cries of anguish to anyone.
