Noapara Port

Workers transport goods to cargo vessels anchored along the riverbanks at the Noapara River Port in Abhaynagar, Jashore, instead of using the main channel. This growing practice, driven by inexperienced shipmasters, has raised concerns due to poor navigability, a narrow channel, and other safety hazards, making it an increasingly risky operation.
