Deceiving the south of the Feni River in southeastern Bangladesh is the Chittagong locale, which

has numerous slopes, hillocks, valleys, and woods and is very extraordinary in perspective from
different pieces of the nation. The seaside plain is incompletely sandy and halfway made out of
saline dirt; it broadens toward the south from the Feni River to the town of Cox's Bazar and
shifts in width from 1 to 10 miles (1.6 to 16 km). The area has various seaward islands and one
coral reef, St. Martin's, off the shoreline of Myanmar. The bumpy territory known as the
Chittagong Hill Tracts, in the far southeast, comprises of low slopes of delicate rocks,
fundamentally mud and shale. The north-south ranges are for the most part under 2,000 feet (600
meters) in height.

The main component of the Bangladesh scene is given by the waterways, which have shaped its
topography as well as the lifestyle of the individuals. Waterways in Bangladesh,
notwithstanding, are dependent upon consistent and now and again fast changes obviously,
which can influence the hydrology of a huge area; therefore, no portrayal of Bangladesh's
geography holds its total precision for long. One breathtaking illustration of such a change
happened in 1787, when the Tista River went through uncommonly high flooding; its waters
were abruptly redirected toward the east, where they strengthened the Brahmaputra. The swollen
Brahmaputra thusly started to cut into a minor stream, which by the mid 1800s had become the
waterway's principle lower course, presently known as the Jamuna. A lot more modest waterway
(the Old Brahmaputra) presently moves through the Brahmaputra's previous course.

Every year among June and October, the waterways flood their banks and immerse the open
country, rising most vigorously in September or October and subsiding rapidly in November.
The immersions are both a gift and a revile. Without them, the rich sediment stores would not be
recharged, however extreme floods consistently harm harvests and ruin villas and once in a while
negatively affect human and creature populaces.

The waterways might be separated into five frameworks: (1) The Padma (or Ganges) and its
deltaic streams, (2) the Meghna and the Surma stream framework, (3) the Jamuna and its
abutting channels, (4) the North Bengal streams, and (5) the streams of the Chittagong Hill
Tracts and the bordering fields.

The more prominent Ganges is the rotate of the deltaic stream arrangement of the recorded area
of Bengal. The more prominent Ganges Delta covers exactly 23,000 square miles (60,000 square
km), the main part of it in southwestern Bangladesh. The Ganges in Bangladesh is known as the
Padma, and it is partitioned into two portions, the upper Padma and the lower Padma. The
waterway enters Bangladesh from the west and establishes, for around 90 miles (145 km), the
limit among Bangladesh and West Bengal. As it streams farther into Bangladesh, the upper
Padma structures various distributaries and spill channels and arrives at its conversion with the
Jamuna west of Dhaka, after which their joined waters make up the lower Padma—which, from
a hydrological point of view, is the Padma appropriate. The lower Padma streams southeast to
join the Meghna close to Chandpur and enters the Bay of Bengal through the Meghna estuary
and lesser channels. But where it is limited by high banks, the upper Padma's principle channel
changes course every a few years. Its waters seem sloppy inferable from the volume of residue
conveyed by the stream. Residue stores assemble brief islands that lessen traversability yet are so
profoundly prolific that they have been for quite a long time a wellspring of fights among
laborers who hurry to involve them.
The Meghna is framed by the association of the Sylhet-Surma and Kusiyara streams. These two
waterways are parts of the Barak River, which ascends in the Nagar-Manipur watershed in India.
The primary part of the Barak, the Surma, is joined close to Azmiriganj in northeastern
Bangladesh by the Kalni and farther somewhere around the Kusiyara branch. The Dhaleswari, a
distributary of the Jamuna River, joins the Meghna a couple of miles over the intersection of the
lower Padma and the Meghna. As it wanders south, the Meghna becomes bigger in the wake of
accepting the waters of a few streams, including the Buriganga and the Sitalakhya.

The Jamuna and its bordering channels cover an enormous zone from north-focal Bangladesh to
the Meghna River in the southeast. Various waterways enter the Jamuna, particularly from the
west, and, with their famously moving channels, they not just forestall perpetual settlement along
the Jamuna's banks yet additionally hinder correspondence between the northern region of
Bangladesh and the eastern part, where Dhaka is arranged.
