Water crisis has occurred in Jessore in hot weather. Water is not rising in the tube wells of the houses. The same picture is in 6 upazilas of Jessore. The water level has been falling suddenly for the last few years. Due to the drying up of river water flowing over Jessore in the last 20 years and due to drought this year, there is a crisis of tube well water from town to village. If effective measures are not taken now, there will be an acute shortage of drinking water everywhere in the future. Meanwhile, experts say that the water level has gone down at an alarming rate. This requires a long-term plan.

In the interview, Md. Abdullah Al Rashid, Supervising Engineer (Irrigation), Jessore Circle, Jessore, said that there has been an acute shortage of drinking water due to avant-garde drought and the use of large quantities of groundwater in boro paddy cultivation. However, the hope is that if the use of surface water in agriculture in Jessore can be 100 percent. By digging river canals. Then there will be no drinking water crisis even if there is no rain in the future.
