Govt to revive water bodies

Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina yesterday said the government has decided to revive water bodies across the country to boost fish production.
“We have already taken decisions to bring back all of our water bodies such as pond, khal (canal) and beel to their earlier state to increase fish production,” she said while inaugurating the “National Fisheries Week-2019” in the capital’s Krishibid Institution Bangladesh (KIB).
The government has already instructed the authorities to take prompt measures to this end, she said.
