“It can be categorized as man-made disaster” said the UP member Swapon Gatider of Burigoalini Union. He said “It was obvious that the embankment became narrow day by day by the soil erosion and it was the administration and Water Development Board who were responsible to repair the dam but nobody seems to care about the maintenance. What was more severe was the impact of climate change and global warming that made the sea level high all around the world. As a result, the water level at the time oftide rose as high as 7 to 9 feet.” The cyclone swept the fish firm, houses, cattle and poultry making huge losses to the people of the coastal belt.
