Our Journey to Buriganga Organizing a Human Chain on Buriganga issue
Our objective: To make people aware of the extinction of the rivers and its ultimate evil consequences on environment
Causes of loosing our rivers Sediments ( 200 core tons per year) canals, lakes, swamps, marshy lands are getting filled. Engrossment ( human settlement, building infrastructures, and river erosion) Farakka Brigade and interventions of human being as well as the Tista and Ti-PaiMukh brigade
Buriganga is getting polluted by human and industrial wastes Withdrawal ( dry period of Bangladesh and Dogmatism of India) Backland Brigade 1864 on the bank of Buriganga. Erosion of rivers Down esteem of sands in the rivers Human intervention
Random dumping of human wastes and wastes of shipyard causes the damnation of Buriganga

Resource person’s recommendations and Remarks Professor, IWFM,BUET (Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology)
Recommendations or the possible solutions (recommended by resource person)
Our journey to IWFM( Institute of Water and Flood Management) BUET Remarks: “ Aesthetic and developed Bangladesh could be built and biodiversity could be kept sound if all the rivers, canals, lakes, swamps, and marshy lands were drainaged, regulated and conversed in a planned, strategic and scientific way” Dr.Sujit Kumar Bala, Professor, IWFM, BUET(Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology)
Lacking of the government (outlined by the Resource person) Fail to make a strong international river treaty Fail to make better exchange of water at Tista river , Ti paimukh barrage and Farakka barrage Fail to make a sound Ganges barrage ,water drainage, lack of scientific management of pastureland and alluvial land Lack of water utilization Economic water scarcity • River Padma is loosing its depth and current due to rise of alluvial land
