The narrow canals and different categories basins are filled by illegal earth filling traders and thus the entire area of Narayanganj district is losing its eco-friendly environment.
If the land administration conducts surveys according to the land map then they will find very rare water bodies exist among all in the map. In such a kind of forcible earth filling in ponds, canals and other basins creating a chain of crimes.
In each mouza map of this district has fifty to hundred ponds but no more now can be seen practically.
Two types of businessmen like sand lifters and dredger owners who have been running their trade of hundred crores taka per year without paying revenue to the Government.
Moving in all walks of the district it is found that the dredger syndicate set up their machine in the river extracting sand to sell the land owner ten taka per square feet for fill-up low land, ponds and canals. This type of business is run by local musclemen who forcibly captured the land of weak people and after filling sand collected money at their own will.
Without having any license at least two patterns of business are running that traders became man of crore paying any revenue.
The government has lost a huge amount of revenue from the two categories of business and also generated crime often as well as lost water bodies like ponds.
