Apprehend robbers of Netrakona haor areas
A vast marshy land spreads across parts of Netrakona, Sunamganj, Hobiganj and Kishoreganj districts. This area has its unique feature. During rainy season, it looks like a sea with numerous villages that resemble islands. No cropping fields, no grazing area, even no road for walking. Transportation is made totally on water. During winter and spring the area becomes almost waterless. Even the rivers can be crossed on foot.
The people of this huge marshy area and are peace-loving. Unfortunately, The whole area is very underdeveloped. There are fewer clashes and disputes among the inhabitants compared to the rest of the country. But nowadays all the villagers are afraid of robber, though it was rare in the past. Recently, it has been happening every now and then.
Robbers attack sleeping people at night and passengers of trawlers at midday. They even killed a man about a year back on 4/9/2011 in Adampur village under Khaliajury upazilla. Robbers use modern weapons. We do not see any steps from the authorities concerned to rid the villagers of the menace.
