Local authorities believe that a rise in mobile phone usage and increased use of metal equipment is to blame for the upsurge in lightning deaths in the country. It was reported that Bangladesh is known for having severe electrical storms. However, this year has been particularly devastating. In just three months, beginning in March 2016, 90 people have been killed by lightning in the country.
