The construction of the river bank dam is going on in Matabbarnagar of the upazila to prevent the erosion of the Meghna in the Kamalnagar upazila of Laxmipur. The designated one kilometer dam has already been completed 85%.
Do not dump the geo bag dumping (sand bags in the river) in the river, the dam has recently collapsed 200 meters. The damaged part has started renovation but there has been a complaint of dumping of the geo bag in the low-quality sand. Locals fear that the dam has not been used again.
According to the locals, the allocation money of the same project is completed three kilometers through the army in Alexander of Ramgati upazila. The army has completed three kilometers of work properly. The army has already been able to protect the area from the erosion of the area.
Residents of Falkon, Patawrirhat, Saheber Hat and Kalkini areas have been delayed in the construction work from the beginning. Unusable geo bags and low-quality cement have been constructed and blocks have been constructed. Although the soil is supposed to be supplied from elsewhere for the construction of the dam, the contractor's people are cutting the soil from the cropland on the river.
Meanwhile, many families have been affected by the continuous erosion, which has been destroyed by many public and private buildings, bazaars and croplands, and the work has been stopped due to various reasons.
It has been found that before decorating the block of the arrow protection dam, it is necessary to fill the river with sand in the river, but the contractor is building the dam without dumping the sand-filled geo bag, which has caused the three-week construction collapse.
The complaint has been that the fixed 100 to 120 FM sand is supposed to be dumped on the geo bags, but the low price is being done on the low price, if the dam is initially protected, the slim sand will be quickly removed from the bag and the silt will be released from the bag.
According to the concerned, 250 kg of sand is filled for one kilometer dam in Kamalnagar. 1 lakh 28 thousand 337 geo bags and 175 kg 1 lakh 22 thousand 263 geo bags will be dumped. 2 lakh 82 thousand 561 blocks will be dumped and arranged in the same dam. 4 meter block dumping from the arrow raksha dam and then 45 meter geo bag dumping is supposed to be done.
AGM Masud Rana, AGM Masud Rana, said that the contractor company and the terrain engineered, said that the 85% of the work of the arrow protection dam has been completed. The sand is not getting as per demand during the monsoon season. Yet the geo bags are being dumped with proper sand.
In this regard, Gazi Itaar Ali, Executive Engineer of Laxmipur Water Development Board, said that low-quality sand and geobags have been sent back several times. Currently, 90 FM sand is being used in the dumping, I hope there will be no problem with the dam.
Incidentally, the game of erosion has been going on for two years in the coastal Ramgati and Kamalnagar. In 2014, the government has allocated Tk 198 crore for the Meghna river bank protection dam.
The allocated money is about one kilometer in Kamalnagar, three kilometers in Alexander of Ramgatti and one kilometer dam in Ramgatitirhat Machghat area.
