Save Ashulia

Ashulia Lake is a nice place. People love to go there with their friends and families. City dwellers yearn for a place where they can enjoy natural beauty.
In the dry season, Ashulia has high agricultural value. About 10 mounds of paddy are produced from each bigha of land. According to the information of Rainbow Nari O Shishu Kallyan Foundation, in Ashulia 62 percent of the people are directly involved in agriculture. On the other hand, during the months-- May to Septemberthere is immense opportunity for fishing and boating.
Wetlands of Ashulia play a vital role as a catchment area in facilitating the drainage of water from Dhaka city during the rainy season.
The authorities need to take appropriate measures immediately to stop illegal encroachment in Ashulia. An effective plan should be framed to conserve Ashulia as a sustainable water body functioning as a significant wetland and an attractive tourist spot.
