UNSUNG HEROES

For my profession, I have to come home late at night almost every day. On my way back home at midnight I regularly encounter the night guards performing their duties on the roads when there is no other living being there. Their helping behavior make me curious about them. However, I have come up with the fact that night guards lead a very struggling life.
Night guards play an important role in the society. When everyone sleeps at night, they stay awake for protecting us from the possible danger. It is for their responsible duty that we lead a safe life. However, I was astounded when I came to know that they get only BD Tk2200-3000 per month as salary.
For extra income, night guards even work in day time. I found that some of them work as a rickshaw puller or as a hawker along with the night guard duty since it is impossible to maintain their family with the little amount of money that they get as their salary.
I want to ask the humanity that ’Don’t they deserve something more against their service to save our valuable resource?’
In my opinion, they are the heroes…the UNSUNG HEROES….
