Continuous heavy rainfall over several days has triggered hill torrents and tidal water intrusion through broken embankments, flooding vast areas of Banshkhali in Chattogram. At least 20,000 people in areas including Chanua, Shekherkhil, Napora, Chambal, Shilkup, Jaldi municipality, Premashia, Kadamrasul, and Pukuria have become waterlogged. Thousands of homes are submerged, leaving residents unable to cook and forcing many into hunger. Fish farms and rural roads have also been inundated, cutting off communication in several villages.
Local social workers and union officials reported that entire neighborhoods such as Madhukhali and Napora are isolated, with key roads and bamboo bridges submerged or damaged. Complaints have surfaced that fishing nets placed in sluice gates are obstructing water flow. Residents have urged immediate government intervention and road repairs to restore access and prevent further damage.
In coastal areas like Khan Khanabad and Baharchhara, tidal water has damaged croplands and homes, raising fears of worsening conditions if embankments are not repaired promptly.
