Save Bangshi

Sohel Rana, Mirpur, Dhaka
The river Bangshi , situated in Savar and Dhamrai, plays an important role for the areas concerned. Many people depend on this river for their livelihood. But it is a matter of great regret that this river is being polluted by toxic industrial waste. This poisonous water, which emerges from garment factories, is a serious threat to this river. The river's water has turned blackish. The fishes of this river have died. Due to toxic water, the production of crops has been hampered. Yet, the necessary steps have not been taken to save the river. I would like to request the authorities concerned to take the steps needed to save the Bangshi from pollution. Otherwise, this river will be contaminated fully soon like Buriganga. It will be a disaster.
