Shapla is getting lost from nature ..

The national flower of Bangladesh is Shapla. But the flowers floating in this beautiful lake are sitting lost in carelessness and neglect. Shapla is the national flower not only in Bangladesh but also in Sri Lanka. In Sri Lanka, Shapla is called Nil-Mahanel. Due to filling of canals and closed reservoirs, not only Kachua but also the national flower Shapla is gradually becoming extinct from different upazilas of Chandpur. There is no conservation initiative.


At present many children have not seen Shapla flowers. So they do not know the water lily. Trying to find out something by looking at the pictures in the book. Due to filling of canals and closed reservoirs with sand, water lilies can no longer grow there. Besides, as a result of modern fish farming in the closed reservoirs, the fields for growing water lilies are getting ruined day by day. If such a situation arises, the national flower may be written on paper and in text books. Due to the rapid extinction, the water lily may no longer be found.
