Most rivers in our country are in a deplorable condition, with many being polluted, dying, or already dead.


The passage highlights that the rivers in Bangladesh are generally "not in good shape," with several already succumbing to death and others in critical condition. This severe degradation is primarily due to extensive pollution, as exemplified by the Buriganga River. The text points out that huge quantities of toxic chemicals and wastes from various sources such as mills, factories, hospitals, clinics, and households are regularly dumped into the rivers. Specifically, Dhaka city contributes significantly to this pollution by discharging thousands of tons of solid waste and highly toxic tannery waste into the Buriganga daily, transforming it into a dying river characterized by polluted water and a persistent foul smell. This indicates a dire environmental crisis impacting the country's crucial river systems.

The Buriganga is described as a dying river primarily due to severe pollution that has drastically degraded its water quality and ecological health. Its once glorious state has been completely reversed by rampant human activities.

According to the provided passage, the river's water is heavily polluted, and a constant foul smell permeates the air around it. This decline is attributed to the daily dumping of massive quantities of toxic chemicals and wastes from various sources. These include mills, factories, hospitals, clinics, households, and other establishments located in and around Dhaka.

More specifically, the city of Dhaka alone discharges about 4500 tons of solid waste into the Buriganga daily. Furthermore, the Department of the Environment (DOE) reports that 20,000 tons of highly toxic tannery waste are released into the river every day. Experts have identified nine major industrial areas, such as Tongi, Tejgaon, Hazaribagh, Tarabo, Narayanganj, Savar, Gazipur, Dhaka Export Processing Zone and Ghorashal, as primary contributors to this catastrophic pollution, effectively sucking the life out of the river that once supported the capital.

The Mughals marvelled at the tide level of the Buriganga. As an outcome, they founded their capital Jahangirnagar on its banks in 1610.


The Mughals, known for their strategic acumen, were highly impressed by the consistent and significant tide level of the Buriganga River. This natural phenomenon was vital for several reasons: it facilitated easy navigation for large boats, which was crucial for trade and commerce, and it also offered a natural defense mechanism. Recognizing these immense benefits, the Mughals chose the banks of the Buriganga to establish their new capital, Jahangirnagar, in 1610. This strategic decision leveraged the river's resources for transportation, drinking water, and economic activities, contributing significantly to the city's growth and prosperity, eventually leading to its renaming as Dhaka and its development into a heavily populated metropolis.
