These days, heat and humidity have worsened the condition of people in many cities of the country. The sun is so strong that going out in the afternoon feels like throwing yourself into a furnace. Meanwhile, a video is being shared widely on social media, seeing which people are getting emotional and angry at the same time.
In the video, two laborer brothers are standing inside a bank ATM. There is scorching heat and humidity outside, and both of them are taking a moment's solace in the cool air of the AC running in the ATM. Both of them are also talking to each other, relaxing a bit. Just this small clip is now viral on the internet.
This video has been posted on Twitter with the handle @hemendra_tri. It is being told that this is from SBI ATM in Lalbagh area of Lucknow. It is clearly visible in the video that these workers found ATM to be the best place to escape the heat. Standing in the cool air of AC, he is relaxing a bit.
Now as soon as this video came out, there was a flood of reactions from people. Someone wrote that "The situation of summer is such that now even ATMs have become night shelters for the people. Then someone said that this video shows the helplessness of the common man. Where should the person who does not have a cooler-AC in his house go? Many users also asked questions to the government and the administration. One user commented that night shelters are opened for the poor in winters, but why not in summers? When the temperature crosses 45, there are cool places for those working on the roads. Arrangements should be made.
Some people became emotional after watching this video. One wrote that only he who carries bricks and mortar in the sun all day long knows the joy of AC air. Another said that a person literally breaks down in such heat. Still, both of them turned out to be lucky ones who were able to enter the ATM. A debate also broke out in the comment section. Some people say that ATMs are not made for such places, there are machines there, there can be security issues. But most people are saying that humanity comes first. If someone, suffering from heat, stood in the AC for two minutes, which mountain would collapse?
'What can we say if we get a room with cool air in this scorching heat?'
