Feni, Aug. 7 -- Residents of three upazilas in Feni-Fulgazi, Parshuram and Chhagalnaiya-are living in constant fear as heavy rains may trigger flood anytime and authorities have yet to repair embankments damaged in the last month's flood.

Although floodwaters have receded breaches in 42 spots in the embankments in the Muhuri, Kohua and Silonia rivers remain unrepaired, leaving the region vulnerable.

With monsoon clouds looming and forecast of fresh flood in the region, panic grips locals who are still reeling from last year's catastrophic floods.

Intermittent rain for the last couple of days has disrupted daily life in Feni, causing temporary waterlogging in several low-lying areas of the town.
