In the Second World War, allied forces dropped an atom bomb on the Japanese city of the Nagasaki. It caused large scale destruction and devastation of life and property. All the buildings were razed to the ground and turned into rubble. 

The earth was littered with dead bodies of human beings and the animals. The whole area looked hellish with ill smell spreading on all sides. The author came to know that all the students in the college and all the patients in the hospital died instantly. The doctor and the nurses who succeeded in run away. Wherever the seen lying on the ground lifeless. They could not make their limbs and cries for water. After giving these horrible details,writer comes to conclusion that:                                                                                                                                                                          ”Never should these terrible nuclear weapons be used again matter what happens only when mankind renounces the use of these unclear weapons, will the soul of my fried rest in peace”.  

  There is doubt that if atomic warfare starts in the world it will destroy not only human civilization but also human itself in any circumstances. Atomic weapons should never be used in any circumstances.
