The Chittagong district administration, Chittagong City Corporation and Chittagong Development Authority have done nothing to reclaim the land occupied by locals on both banks of the Karnaphuli river two years after the High Court issued orders to do so.

We are disappointed to see that the dredging project of the Karnaphuli River, a lifeline for Chittagong city and the port, has been stalled for more than three years.
