History
In 1995, the Forest Department created a 5 square kilometres (1.9 sq mi) mangrove forest park that stretches from Faujdarhat to South Kattali in Chittagong. The area experienced a major oil spill when an oil-laden train derailed on 9 July 2014.
Ship breaking yard
The beach in the area is used to demolish ships. At 15 square kilometres (5.8 sq mi) in length, it is the longest ship breaking site in the world. Around 200,000 people work there and the industry contributes a lot to the Bangladesh economy.
