MONSOON: BLESSING NO MORE
Monsoon is considered a blessing in a country such as Bangladesh that is categorised under tropical monsoon climate. But the residents of the cities including Dhaka have started to think otherwise nowadays as the cities have become unfit to disperse water after only an hour of heavy monsoon rain. Destruction, encroachment and clogging up of existing drainage and canal networks, construction of buildings filling up low-lying areas are among a number of reasons behind the collapse of the drainage system in the capital, say experts.
