The Bengal Basin

The Bengal Basin, consisting of Bangladesh (East Bengal) and the eastern part of India (West Bengal) has unique geographic features. It has one of the world’s largest flat alluvial deltaic plains where three big rivers — the Ganges, the Brahmaputra, and the Meghna (BGM) flow. Due to these geographic characteristics and the tropical monsoon, the Bengal Basin is vulnerable to various water problems. During the monsoon, the Bengal Basin experience wide spread flooding, but lacks drinking water in the dry months because of drought.

 

Western Part of Bengal Basin belongs to West Bengal, India

 

Easter Part of Bengal Basin belongs to Bangladesh
