Now we will start talking and discussing river get flooded and we will start listening news that level of river is getting rise day by day and than suddenly we will start talking and listening news there is no water in the rivers. Rivers are getting dry. Isn't amazing and point of height to think where we are wrong and why we can’t control this????
