Water crisis

H. Rahman, Banani, Dhaka
Acute water shortage, abominable water pollution, steady fall of ground water level and what not! All the rivers around the city, Buriganga, Shitalakhya and Turag, are dead. All these combined together is posing a threat to our very survival. So, let us work and find an alternate source of fresh water. To my mind, the river Jamuna in Tangail should be a suitable source of water. Let a water treatment plant be installed in Tangail with pipes laid out right up to Dhaka to carry the treated water.
