Fish In The Jalangi River Has Decreased Due To Pollution
Jalangi River Is Almost Devoid Of Fish Due To Pollution. Casting A Net For Fish In A River Often Results In Garbage Arriving Instead Of Fish. Two Or Three Times A Year, Polluted Chemical Water From Factories, Sugar Mills, And Rice Mills Enters The River Through Various Canals And Kills Fish. The Source Of This River, Which Originates From The Padma River, Has Been Blocked By Human Construction. Uncontrolled Excavation Of The Riverside Soil Has Reduced The Navigability Of The Jalangi River And Closed The Source Route Of The River. Fish In The River Have Decreased Due To Hydrocarbons, Pesticides From Agriculture Fields, Depletion Of Dissolved Oxygen, Plastics, And Sewage. Here The Fishing Nets Are Being Cast In The River And Most Times The Nets Are Empty Or Occasionally A Single Fish At A Time Like Reba Carp Fish, Or Bata Fish Or Striped Snakehead Fish Is Caught In Nets At Tehatta, West Bengal, India, On november 01,2024.
