Garbage at the Coxs Bazar sea beach shocks tourists.



A news report published in a section of the media says that some unidentified people have started releasing sewage into sea waters at the Cox’s Bazar Beach. This is a most irresponsible behaviour and is distracting those tourists who come to see the abuse.

People go to the beach to breath in the fresh air and walk, bath or swim in the sea water for recreation. If they see sewage is being dumped through some channels into the water of the beach they would not only be shocked but also start avoid going to the beach again to escape foul ordour and risk of having sewage mixed water in their clothes and bodies. 

The Cox’s Bazar tourism authorities should immediately look into the matter and stop the discharge of sewage through the beach.

Sincerely yours,
