Severe Riverbank Erosion along the Jamuna River in Sirajganj Threatening Borni Government Primary School

Persistent riverbank erosion along the Jamuna River in Sirajganj has caused significant damage to infrastructure, including the loss of Borni Government Primary School in Kawakola Union. Illegal sand extraction is exacerbating the crisis, displacing residential and agricultural land across Sadar, Chowhali, and Kazipur upazilas, with the school building partially collapsed forcing school operations to shift to a temporary Mujib Killa shelter.
