The epicenter of this earthquake was Kanchanbari located in the Dhalai district of Tripura. The present study aims to assess the environmental and socio-economic impact of this earthquake in the vicinity of the epicenter. To assess and determine the level of damage, the affected areas were visited during the first week of the 2017 earthquake. Various Government offices were also consulted to acquire data on damages caused by the earthquake. Moreover, Remote Sensing and Geographical Information System (RS & GIS) techniques were applied to address the influence of this earthquake on bank erosion. During the field visit, the striking features of soil liquefaction generated by the earthquake were observed in the flood plain area of the Manu River. Landslide, with three casualties in India and the neighbor Bangladesh, and damages of infrastructure were also reported. Additionally, an assessment of the bank erosion study revealed that the rate of the post-earthquake bank erosion increased to 592%, compared to the pre-earthquake bank erosion within the study length of the Manu River.

There will be wide range of vehicles such as two and three axle/ multi axle trucks, bus, car, two-wheeler etc. These type of transportation system are major contributors to air pollution as these emit harmful pollutants which has adverse impact on environment. It is difficult to project air pollution as because pollutant enters the air by different amounts at different times and also varies with places. It is expected that air pollutants which might be discharged by the operations of tenant in the industrial and logistic area would be well controlled and managed by the tenants. For indicative assessment of air quality of the project area, projection has been done for some pollutants due to vehicle emission only. Forecast Area The areas examined to forecast is the project area (Zone 2A and 2B of BSMSN) shown in the Figure 1- 1. The project area is about 1450 acres. At present, it is observed that the concentration of some pollutants such as SO2, NOX, CO, PM2.5, PM10 and SPM are below the allowable limit as per DoE standard (Bangladesh). All the surveyed data are given in the baseline data collection section of main report.

Therefore, it is important to take practical disaster mitigating measures which meet the local vulnerability conditions of the region. Designating Bangladesh as a research zone, this research aims to propose measures for strengthening the disaster mitigating system tailored to the region starting from identifying the characteristics of the disaster risk threatening the country. To this end, we identified the country’s natural and social characteristics first, and then analyzed the risk challenges and their background as the cause to create and expand the water-related disasters. Furthermore, we also analyzed the system

  • Importance of Making More Water Dams and Construction of Concretes River Embankment in Bangladesh to Protect Flood

For nearly half the year, the monsoon rains cause the country’s four major rivers, the Jamuna, Padma, Brahmaputra and Meghna, and their tributaries to swell. Devastating floods are often the consequence. During the rest of the year, the dry season brings almost no rainfall, and droughts threaten the livelihoods of people and the health of the natural environment. Frequent and widespread flooding is a major problem in Bangladesh, which is a Rangpur, Bogra, Shirajganj, Rajbari Region. The problem is caused mainly by the Jamuna River and sudden coming floodwater from India through Brahmaputra whose erratic riverbank erosion has been leading to the general widening of channels and large-scale instability of riverbanks. Both the flooding and erosion in the river valley can be tackled only through an adaptive response that includes the use of structural protection systems such as making water dams and strong river embankment. A practicability study in this paper was led for riverbank protection works and an increasing number of dams are also discussed.
