The Tista River at Dalia Point in Rangpur has surged 5 centimeters above the danger level due to the release of water from India’s Gazaldoba barrage, causing severe flooding and distress to nearby residents. Hundreds of families in multiple unions are submerged, with roads and homes inundated. Farmers face the dual challenges of drought and flood, blaming India’s irregular water management. Local leaders urge a fair, sustainable water-sharing agreement between India and Bangladesh to prevent recurring crises.
