Waterlogging in Cumilla City Corporation Disrupts Life and SSC Exams, Prompts PM Directive

On April 28, 2026, approximately 102mm-126mm of heavy rainfall submerged areas of Cumilla city, including Kandirpar, Racecourse, and Stadium Road. The event forced SSC examinees at Ishwar Pathshala school to sit for exams in knee-deep water, caused damage to vehicles, and prompted the Prime Minister to order the city administrator to ensure immediate drainage. The situation was subsequently resolved through overnight cleanup efforts.
