FE Report
Sammilito Nari Samaj (SNS) is going to Jakiganj today (Tuesday) as a mark of protest against Tipaimukh dam as it would seriously affect agricultural land, local flora and fauna and would displace people and livestock.
The environmentalists have expressed deep concern that if the project is implemented it will deprive Bangladesh of its share of the international river that supplies water to hundreds of water bodies in the region, a press release said.
They fear that the dam would ultimately dry up the Meghna river in the greater Sylhet region and nearby districts, added the release.
The dam will bring disaster for the country drying up the Surma and the Kushiara rivers in winter season, which water most of the north-eastern regions of Bangladesh.
The SNS will also visit Amalsid area and discuss the issue with the local representatives and experts.
