An embankment in the Palashtola Bakkar Mor area of Dhanua Kamalpur Union, Bakshiganj upazila of Jamalpur district, was breached by floodwaters following heavy rainfall and hill runoff. The breach has allowed water to enter low-lying areas, raising fears among local farmers of severe damage to Aus paddy and jute crops.
According to local sources, a section of the embankment had already collapsed about a month ago due to heavy rain, causing significant losses to Boro paddy at that time. Despite the earlier damage, no effective repair work was undertaken, and the recent downpour and hill floods have worsened the situation. Farmers now fear that hundreds of acres of farmland could be submerged if the embankment is not repaired immediately.
Local farmers have urged the administration and the Water Development Board to take urgent action to repair the damaged embankment and protect their farmland and crops from further destruction.
