Possibility of flash flood is lessening in Teesta basin

RANGPUR: The possibility of a flash flood is gradually lessening alongside the Teesta as its water level marked fall at almost all monitoring points in Rangpur region today.
Bangladesh Water Development Board (BWDB) officials said the Glacial Lhonak Lake outburst flood damaged the upstream Chungthang Dam in North Sikkim of India on Wednesday causing an atypical rise in Teesta water level and a sudden flood situation in the downstream Teesta basin.
