Nilphamari flooding still precarious
Flooding of Dimla and Jaldhaka upazilas in Nilphamari district with the rise of Teeta and its tributaries and other rivers in Nilphamari including Saniajan, Buri Teesta, Deunai, Burikhora, Charalkanta, Jamuneswari, Panga still remains at a precarious level. The rivers swelled as India opened all the gates of Gojaldoba barrage in the upstream to release the pressure of water from heavy rainfall in its territory and onrush of water from the hills.
