Yea!!that waz really sad and horrible.35000 children died,6000 school buildings collapsed,balakot with a population of nearly 25000 lost half of its population and ppl who are alive are still afraid of the quake.My driver who'z whole family including his 4 children,wife,parents and relatives all living in bagh died becaz of the earth quake he was the only member who survived.Balakot which was once said to be a really beautiful city is no longer same the more,it has been completely,completely destroyed!!
There was no one in Muzzafarabad and Bagh whose 4-5 family members including relatives didnt die on tht day
Dont people find it weird that 8th October at the Sehri time every thing was on right on its place,it was 3rd ramazan the ashra of rehmat.People didnt know what waz going to happen with them in next 24hours.
People started their routine work,children went to their colleges and schools.Suddenly at 8:53am the earth rose with alot of noise...then it shook badly.It seemed that this is now the end,the quake continued for atleast7-8 mins people thought Qayamat has came.Mountains collapsed with each other resulting in the devastation of towns.
The epicentre was 3 kilometres away from the heart of Kashmir Muzzafarabad.The mountain fell into the river neelam resulting in the blockage of the river.The city which was once full of life was now full of dead bodies.....
So lets just pray to Allah that Allah saves us all from catastrophes,and may Allah bless those people who died in the quake that day(Amin)!
