मुंगेर में भीषण गर्मी के कारण लोगों का जीना मुश्किल हो गया है। तापमान 40 से 43 डिग्री तक पहुंचने से सड़कों पर वाहनों की गुजरने में भी कमी आ गई है। ग्रामीण इलाकों में भी गर्मी का असर दिख रहा है और बिजली की कटौती के कारण लोगों की परेशानी बढ़ रही है। चिकित्सक ने सुझाव दिया है कि छोटे बच्चे और बुजुर्ग धूप में बाहर ना निकलें और पूरे शरीर को कपड़े से ढक कर बाहर जाएं। इसके साथ ही लोगों ने केंद्र सरकार और बिहार सरकार से राष्ट्रीय राजमार्ग के किनारे पेड़ लगाने की मांग की है।
