Siliguri, 01st March: Illegal constructions are transpiring by encroaching on the Angarijhora River in the Asighar Naresh More area under Dabgram-Fulbari. The administration was directed to remove the illegal construction when the concern was brought up to them.
Reportedly, several people have encroached on the Angarijhora river by throwing big stones and boulders. It is alleged that the course of the river has changed by throwing boulders into the river. The police of Asighar Out Post was instructed to remove the boulder from the river as soon as they got a clue about it.
On the other hand, the locals said that during the rainy season, the dirty water of Angarijhora enters the house. On taking the concern to the Pradhan or Panchayat members, no solution was sought. Boulders have been inserted to prevent rainwater from entering.
In this regard, Pradhan Sudha Singh Chatterjee said that encroachment is taking place by throwing stones in the river. An order has been given to remove the illegal occupation as soon as the police administration notices it.
