State-Level Fish Festival Highlights Tripura's Commitment to Aquaculture Development

 

A significant state-level fish festival was organized at Purbasha Maidan in Agartala on February 14, 2025, marking a crucial step in promoting aquaculture and supporting fish farmers across Tripura. Fisheries Minister Sudhanshu Das inaugurated the prestigious event with the traditional lamp lighting ceremony, setting the tone for a celebration of the state's aquaculture achievements and potential. This third fish festival of the year represents a strategic shift in the government's approach, as it follows successful district-level festivals conducted across eight districts, demonstrating a more localized and inclusive approach to promoting fish farming.





During his address, Minister Das emphasized the vital role of scientific fish farming in meeting the state's fish demand while simultaneously creating opportunities for farmers to achieve financial independence. The government's commitment to this sector is evident through its comprehensive support system for fish farmers, including technical guidance, financial assistance, and marketing support. The festival served multiple purposes, primarily acting as a platform to acknowledge and celebrate the dedication of fish farmers while also inspiring the younger generation to consider aquaculture as a viable career option. The event showcased various aspects of fish farming, from traditional methods to modern techniques, and highlighted success stories of local fish farmers who have achieved significant results through proper farming practices.

 The minister's emphasis on the festival's role in encouraging youth participation in the sector reflects the government's long-term vision for sustainable aquaculture development in Tripura. The culmination of the event with an awards ceremony for outstanding fish farmers not only recognized their achievements but also served to motivate others in the sector. This state-level celebration of aquaculture demonstrates Tripura's commitment to achieving self-sufficiency in fish production while ensuring the economic well-being of its farming community, marking a significant step towards sustainable agricultural development in the region.
