Tipkai River Floods Wreak Havoc in Dhubri's Gauripur

Tipkai River Floods Wreak Havoc in Dhubri's Gauripur

The Tipkai river in Gauripur, Dhubri district, is causing a lot of trouble.

Heavy rains have made the river's water rise very high, and it has washed away more than 20 houses.

Many farms, especially those growing jute, are underwater, and the crops are ruined.

People in the areas of Baghmara and Baraibari have been facing this problem for many years because the government has not done enough to protect them from the floods.

Last year, the villagers even built their own wall to protect their homes and farms.

Now, they are asking the government to do something to stop the floods and protect them better.
