Bhagirath Puclic School, Ghaziabad preys for peace


A uranium gun-type atomic bomb called Little Boy was dropped on Hiroshima on August 6, 1945, followed by a plutonium implosion-type bomb called Fat Man on the city of Nagasaki on August 9. Little Boy exploded 2,000 feet above Hiroshima in a blast equal to 12-15,000 tons of TNT, destroying five square miles of the city. Within the first two to four months of the bombings, the acute effects of the atomic bombings killed 90,000–166,000 people in Hiroshima and 39,000–80,000 in Nagasaki; roughly half of the deaths in each city occurred on the first day. During the following months, large numbers died from the effect of burns, radiation sickness, and other injuries, compounded by illness and malnutrition. In both cities, most of the dead were civilians, although Hiroshima had a sizable military garrison.

This was the black day of Indian history. Bhagirath Puclic School, Ghaziabad preys peace and appeal that don't use nuclear weapons from now.
