Basant.....Is it good or bad???


Here i post some Excerpts from a newspaper. You can see full article at " pakistantimes.net "

As the joyful people of the Punjab metropolis celebrated the festival of Basant, the herald of Spring in Pakistan with traditional extravagance on Sunday, shocks jolted multiple dwellers who lost their loved ones in tragic episodes.
Till mid-night speak of awful incidents during the past 24 hours wherein almost 20 people lost their lives with over 500 injured?some of them are reported to be in critical condition in sickbays.
The overall number of causalities could increase, as there could still be similar occurrences, which remain unreported from within the jurisdiction of Lahore as well as from elsewhere, explicitly from the remote areas in Pakistan.
Sorry to say that most of the victims were kids, who succumbed to the wounds, inflicted by lethal strings alike sharp wires which are used for Kite-Flying.
Though the use of such filament as thread to fly the kites was banned by authorities, the affluent, born with a silver spoon in mouth did not care and clutched their delight to their fullest satisfaction?least bothered about the catastrophes the elfin class could face.
Lahore Electric Supply Company (LESCO) has suffered a loss of Rs 60 million caused by 2,400 minor and 90 major power losses and fluctuations that hit the city s electricity transmission system on Saturday night following Sunday Basant celebrations.
