The Fish Festival

The five-day Fish Fair 2019 in the capital’s Khamarbari area came to an end recently. The festival showcased the wealth of the country’s resources in terms of fish. While no fish were sold at the exhibition, visitors could learn the know-hows of fish cultivation and the benefits of it. This year’s slogan was “Building the country through fish cultivation”. The elaborate installations showed how to rear prawns, oysters, pomfret and many others. Information on different breeds and cultivation techniques was also available.
