Maybe this lockdown due to COVID-19 is enough for you to stay home and enjoy beautiful travel blogs on Tripoto. But it's not for us. The situation in west Bengal is pretty bad right now. 20th May a super cyclone "Amphan" hits us around 130-150kmph which itself a history. And so hard that still now we're almost stuck in the middle of it. No mainstream media isn't covering it like every time they did with Assam Flood. We're very fond of disaster in other countries but we're not at all supportive for our own Bengal. No, I'm not at all saying anything on political views. But even now when I'm writing it here, after 5 day's, still plenty of part's of Kolkata are out of water, no electricity, no food. Most effected part's are South 24 Pgs,North 24 pgs and Mednipur. Coastal parts are gone. They didn't have shelter and food. Electricity is dream for them. If possible support Bengal as much as you can, in cash or kind, the way you want. Apart from CM Fund, plenty NGO's are working there relentlessly. They need support, a lot of support.

Maybe i captured only 1% of it from my home, but it was worse than you thought.
