Flood rages on in Sylhet, situation worsening with incessant rain

Continuous rainfall and mountain runoff have triggered the second wave of flooding in Sylhet within 20 days, submerging numerous roads and homes.

Even a light downpour floods vast areas of Chattogram city in waist- to knee-deep water. The authorities' failure to complete the waterlogging mitigation project within the deadline prolongs the suffering. The photo was taken recently from the Badurtola area of the city.
