Is it true?
I was quite shocked to hear a news report . This was given in a Channel i newspaper review programme by Mr MR Chaoudhury. The reaction of a senior journalist was quite legitimate and necessary. The news report is that a BWDB project from the "Aila" affected area has been moved from there to Bhairab. The news is missing a lot of details, yet I think the reaction of the journalist was quite appropriate.
I would draw the attention of the BWDB to explain to the public as to why and how this has happened, if the news is correct. If they fail to respond in next seven days of the publication of this letter, I would urge upon the government to kindly look into the matter and let the people know the fact through the media, so that the responsible party can be made accountable for any wrong doing (presumably, shifting of the project without the approval of the competent authorities )
The media should come up with follow up reports on this issue.
