The Dhaka Times Desk There are more people in the world who love to sleep. Although not like Kumbhakarna, many spend the day and night sleeping.
Just as sleep is essential for physical health, it also benefits mental health. So doctors suggest that 8 hours of regular sleep is very important to stay healthy.
But if someone disturbs your peaceful sleep, can you file a lawsuit in his name? Certainly not, even if our country does not have this law, there is a similar law in neighboring India. People's right to sleep is also mentioned there.
Sleep is a fundamental right in the country. Article 21 of the Constitution of India gives every citizen the right to sleep in peace without any disturbance. Right to sleep is recognized as a fundamental right under Article 21 'Right to life and personal liberty'. According to Article 21 of the Constitution 'No person shall be deprived of his life or personal liberty except in accordance with the procedure established by law'.
The issue came up in 2012. At that time, while hearing a case of police action on a sleeping crowd at Baba Ramdev's rally in Delhi, the country's Supreme Court ruled that the police action amounted to a violation of fundamental rights.
While referring to sleep as a fundamental human right, the Supreme Court also held that sleep is essential for a human being to maintain the delicate balance of health necessary for his existence and survival. So sleep is fundamental. Basic needs without which the existence of life would be in jeopardy.
Justice Chauhan said, sleep is a basic need for a human being - not a luxury. If ever this sleep is disturbed, the mind gets confused and it disrupts the health cycle. Disruption of a person's normal sleep can also lead to various health problems. For example, mental imbalance, indigestion and cardiovascular health are also affected.

How to prevent dengue
Dengue is a mosquito-borne viral fever. This fever is different from other viral or bacterial fevers. However, this fever is not contagious in any way. This viral fever can occur alone or in combination with other viruses (chikungunya, yellow fever, Burma forest, flu, respiratory syncytial) and bacteria (pneumococcus).
Dengue fever is divided into two categories depending on the severity of symptoms and fever.
1. Common dengue fever
2. Dengue fever with bleeding.
In the case of common dengue fever, the following symptoms are mainly seen-
1. Sudden high fever lasting 2 to 7 days.
2. Severe headache.
3. Pain behind the eyes.
4. Along with the fever, red rash appears all over the body.
5. Severe pain in whole body as well as back pain.
6. Nausea or vomiting.
7. A rash or red bumps on the skin.
In case of dengue fever with bleeding:
1. Bleeding from nose, mouth or vomiting with high fever within 2 to 48 hours.
2. Fluid accumulation in chest or abdomen along with fever.
If any of these symptoms appear, seek medical attention immediately.
On the other hand
Wait at home for the first 3 days of fever. On the other hand, sponge the whole body with water every now and then. This will reduce the level of fever. Drink enough water and rest. After that, if the fever does not decrease or if it continues to increase after some time, consult a doctor immediately.
Things to do to prevent Dengue:
1. Try to keep the surroundings of the house as clean as possible.
2. If there are flower tubs or broken plastic bottles, can shells, tires or polythene inside the house, clean them quickly and drain the accumulated water from the flower tubs.
3. Spray or fog at least 3 times a week to kill mosquitoes.
4. You can keep mosquito repellent cream with you while going out.
5. After evening, younger and older members of the household should use mosquito nets.
6. Clean up any accumulated rain water, as this is the time when Aedes mosquitoes lay their eggs.
7. On the other hand, you can use mats along with mosquito nets to avoid mosquito infestation.
8. Since Aedes mosquitoes bite during the day, it is important to avoid sleeping with mosquito nets while sleeping during the day. Source: https://dmpnews.org
