BELA's finding on Khulna’s dying rivers serves a warning

Land minister says at Dhaka Chamber's event

Terming the felling of trees on Saat Masjid Road unfortunate, DSCC Mayor Sheikh Fazle Noor Taposh yesterday said at times, trees have to be felled for development.

The National River Conservation Commission has decided not to publish a list of 37,000 new encroachers of 48 rivers and the environment activists say protecting their identities is tantamount to siding with the grabbers.

Environmental organisations today demanded that the government withdraw the decision of constructing Kalabagan police station building on Tetultala playground and keep it open for all.
