“Large parts of the rivers Buriganga and Turag are on the brink of being occupied. This is because the Inland Water Transport Authority (BIWTA) has wrongly positioned boundary pillars while demarcating the river boundaries around Dhaka. Four water bodies including extensive wetlands connected to these two rivers are at the risk of being filled because of this.”
