Fisheries of River Matla Causing Flood in the River Matla

There is a bad practice going on in the Rivers of India. We are using it for pisciculture but to do that we are restricting the flow path of the rivers. As a result, the width of the rivers is reducing. Look at the following video. This is River Matla. It flows into River Bidyadhari and ultimately to the Bay of Bengal. It is also connected to the Waste Water Channels of Kolkata Metro City. All the wastewater from Kolkata falls into River Kulti, then to Matla, and ultimately to the Bay of Bengal. As the width of the river is narrowing due to the encroachments for pisciculture, if rainfall with a 100-year return period takes place in Kolkata then the entire watershed, including Kolkata, can be submerged into its “own” waste. Think about it.
