Narendra Nath Barman often visits the bank of the Teesta. Tears roll down his eyelids as the 75-year-old stands silently on the riverbed in Rajpur village of Lalmonirhat Sadar -- a place he once called home.
Water level of the Teesta river in Lalmonirhat receded, but the river was still flowing above danger level in Kurigram this morning
Vast tracts of low-lying areas in three northern districts have been inundated due to an onrush of water from upstream and torrential rainfall.
About 100m of the 300-metre earthen flood control embankment along the Teestahas collapsed in Lalmonirhat's Aditmari upazila due to strong currents in the river
At least 30,000 people of Kurigram are currently marooned as the flood situation in the district’s Rajarhat, Ulipur and Chilmari upazilas remains largely unchanged, according to the district relief and rehabilitation office.
