Hatirjheel choked by pollution

Many people visit Hatirjheel in Dhaka to enjoy the open space, but the area has shrunk in appeal due to rising pollution. In different places, rubbish has discoloured the water, and a strong stench lingers in the air, accompanied by swarms of mosquitoes and flies.

Many visitors are forced to sit near piles of waste after reaching the waterfront. Photo taken at the Begunbari section of Hatirjheel in Tejgaon. Photo: Mahmud Zaman Ovi
