AGARTALA, Aug 6 (TIWN): With the slogans of “No more Hiroshima and No more Nagasaki†Social Welfare & Social Education Minister Bijita Nath on Saturday inaugurated a program at sukanta Academy.
On August 6 and 9, 1945, the cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki were bombed with nuclear weapons. Over 100,000 people, mostly civilians, died instantly and thousands more succumbed to burns, malnutrition, and illness. It is our duty to remember these events.
It is duty to celebrate the spirit of survivors and those who have dedicated themselves to ensuring that such events are never repeated and that nuclear weapons are never used again. The only way to ensure that these weapons are not used is to eliminate them.
The United States, with the consent of the United Kingdom as laid down in the Quebec Agreement, dropped nuclear weapons on the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in August 1945, during the final stage of World War II. The two bombings, which killed at least 129,000 people, remain the only use of nuclear weapons for warfare in history.
