End of dry spell

Published December 14, 2017

THE end of the dry spell is a blessing for our peasants. The rain has turned the weather colder in Buner district. The entire valley is covered with a white blanket and presents a beautiful look.

The ongoing rain spell will address miseries like coughs, sore throat, fevers, and skin allergies will decline considerably. The rain will alleviate the water crisis.

Last but not least, the tourists will come in droves from adjacent districts to enjoy the cold and clean atmosphere that prevails in the remote and hilly areas of Buner.
