  • (PSI) Project Name Mymensingh Kewatkhali Bridge Project Country
    Project Number: 000163 Project Summary Information (PSI) Project Name Mymensingh Kewatkhali Bridge Project Country People’s Republic of Bangladesh Sector Transport Project No. 0000163 Borrower People’s Republic of Bangladesh Implementation Agency Ministry of Road Transport and Bridges Environmental and Social Category A Date of PSI prepared or updated Sep. 5, 2018 Date of Concept Decision Approved on Sep. 4, 2018 Estimated Date of Board Consideration Aug., 2019 I. Introduction Mymensingh Kewatkhali Bridge is part of the Dhaka-Mymensingh-India border corridor, which is strategically important for both regional and local connectivity. Three land ports have been developed along the Indian border in Mymensingh Division, namely Nakugaon Land port in Sherpur district, Gobrakura Land Port and Haluaghat Land Port in Mymensingh District. Traffic from the three land ports must cross Old Brahmaputra River at Mymensingh City in order to reach Dhaka and other parts of Bangladesh. As with other land ports on the northern border with India, the main import items are coal, lime stone, boulder, stone, glass sand, fruits and raw hides. Export items are food and beverage items, plastic goods and bricks. Given the proximity to the Indian border (around 60-80 km from Mymensingh to the three land ports), the road passing through Mymensingh serves international trade by carrying the major import/export items from/to India. The improved crossing at Mymensingh will help facilitate cross-border trade with northeast India. On the other hand, the Mymensingh Kewatkhali bridge will provide crossing over the Old Brahmaputra River to connect the landlocked north central and northeast Bangladesh with Dhaka.

    Bangladesh Rice J. 21 (2) : 217-235, 2017 Cropping Patterns in Mymensingh Region: Diversity, Constraint and Potential A Khatun1*, N Parvin1, M M R Dewan2 and A Saha1 ABSTRACT A consistent and comprehensive database on cropping pattern, cropping intensity and crop diversity of a particular area is the prime importance for guiding policy makers, researchers, extentionists and development agencies for the future research and development planning. The study was carried out all the upazilas of Mymensingh region during 2015-16 using pre-designed and pre-tested semi- structured questionnaire with a view to document the existing cropping pattern, crop diversity and cropping intensity. The most dominant cropping pattern Boro−Fallow−T. Aman occupied about one- half of net cropped area (NCA) of the region distributed to 46 out of 47 upazilas. Single Boro cropping pattern ranked the second position which covered 23% of NCA distributed in 45 upazilas. A total of 129 cropping patterns were identified in the whole area of Mymensingh region under this investigation. The highest number of (30) cropping patterns were identified in Pakundia upazila of Kishoreganj and the lowest was (10) in Sreebardi of Sherpur. The lowest crop diversity index (CDI) was reported (0.111) in Mithamoin of Kishoreganj followed by 0.114 at Khaliajuri in Netrokona. The highest value of CDI was observed 0.933 at Dewanganj in Jamalpur followed by 0.920 at Bhairab in Kishoreganj. The range of cropping intensity values was recorded 101-249%. The maximum value was for Hossainpur and minimum for Itna and Mithamoin in Kishoreganj. At a glance the calculated CDI of Mymensingh region was 0.840 and the average cropping intensity was 187%.

    Evaluation of Netherlands-funded NGOs in Bangladesh Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Policy and Operations Evaluation Department (IOB) ISBN 90-5328-163-0 Photographs: Ron Giling/LINEAIR Maps and figures: Geografiek, Amsterdam Pre-press services: Transcripta, Beerzerveld Printed by: Ridderprint BV, Ridderkerk Preface The evaluation of Netherlands supported NGOs in Bangladesh forms part of a study undertaken by the Policy and Operations Evaluation Department (IOB) on the Netherlands bi-lateral aid programme for Bangladesh in the period 1972–96. The support to NGOs through the regular aid programme and through the Co-financing Programme has been important to the Netherlands’ pursuance of poverty alleviation objectives in Bangladesh. A total of Dfl. .247 million has been disbursed through these channels, some three quarters of which after 1990. The position of NGOs in Bangladeshi society is quite unique. Bangladesh is home to the largest national NGOs in the world, as well as to a multitude of middle- and small-sized NGOs that operate on a national, regional or local level. The Bangladeshi NGOs literally reach out to millions of people in both rural and urban areas. This study comprises extensive case studies of a cross section of NGOs in Bangladesh. Both the Bangladeshi NGOs that were subject of study and their partners in the Netherlands, Bilance (formerly Cebemo), ICCO and Novib, have been closely involved in the various stages of the study. The study has concentrated on the credit and training activities that constitute the mainstay of NGO programmes. It is concluded that these activities effectively target the poorer sections of the population, particularly women.
