Monga (Bangladesh)
Monga is a Bengali term referring to the yearly cyclical phenomenon of poverty and hunger in Bangladesh. It is also called "mora Kartik," which means "months of death and disaster." It refers to two times per year, from September–November (after the ''aman'' crop is planted) and from March–April (after the ''boro'' crop is planted).
