The Meghna is the sorrow of Haimchar. Vast expansion
of Haimchar and Puranbazar, Chandpur has gone into the
Meghna due to ominous bite of her fiercely and devastating
tide and flow. To save affected Haimchar and Puranbazar-
Chandpur, the Government of Bangladesh took steps to
control river and the south bank of the Meghna, that is
the river bank in Haimchar is firmly covered with cement
boulders. Thus, in one hand, land slide due to river flow is
stopped and on the other hand river Meghna and her bank
can attract more people as a spot for refreshment.
