The government is developing a comprehensive master plan to protect the Haor wetlands, according to Syeda Rizwana Hasan, Adviser to the Ministry of Environment, Forest, and Climate Change and the Ministry of Water Resources.
She stated that steps such as embankment construction, afforestation, and controlled tourism are being taken with community involvement to preserve the biodiversity of the Haor. Tangua Haor has been listed as an endangered ecosystem, with data collection currently underway. For the first time, under the 2013 Water Act, four agencies are working in coordination for Haor development.
