Acute crisis of drinking water in Bandarban
Acute crisis of drinking water in Bandarban
Bandarban's hilly villages are experiencing an acute crisis of fresh drinking water as the water sources in the hills are drying up due to deforestation, stone quarrying, and unplanned jhum cultivation. It takes approximately one-and-half-an-hour to two hours for the residents to fetch only a water pitcher. Many families living in the mountains are being forced to buy drinking water and do other household chores with the purchased water. Water from Falls has been selling locally for 2–5 Tk.
