The Koshi is a very long river. It is the deepest river flowing through
the Morang district. It rises in the Himalayas in the Tibet. After flowing
through the norst-eastern part of the India and the Bangladesh, it joins
the Ganga. The valley of the Bramaputra has the fertile farmland. In the
rainy season, the river floods much of the valley. The life without the
water is not possible, yet it triggers a lot of physical and human damage
during the monsoon. The fishing is the main profession of the villagers
who live near the Koshi River. The villagers catch fish the every day and
sell for their living. Children, men, women, senior citizens—everyone is
involved in the this. Sometimes the news of death of children drowning
in the river hits the headline of national dailies of the Nepal. Such tragic
death is common in such areas. On the positive side, there are some
water canals constructed for irrigation.
