Sand & Stone Extraction Fleet In Bangladesh
On February 6, 2026, in Sylhet, Sunamganj, Bangladesh, an aerial view shows boats extracting sand and stones from the Jadukata River in Tahirpur, Sunamganj, Sylhet, Bangladesh. The river flows through Tahirpur and Bishwambharpur upazilas and is renowned for its high-quality sand and stone, which are vital sources for the local economy in Bangladesh's northeast frontier. The river landscape reflects both natural features and labor-driven livelihoods. However, widespread and illegal extraction activities raise serious environmental concerns, threatening river ecology, biodiversity, and long-term sustainability.
