2500 FISH SLAUGHTERED ?- Nepal



Some 2500 fingerlings have been released in Bagmati River supposedly to raise awareness on positive action for environment protection. The five species of fishes were provided free by Nepal Agricultural Research Council, a government organization. The environmentalists have criticized this event, and have claimed that none of the fish will survive as Bagmati is not a suitable habitat for these fishes because of over-pollution and consequent lack of dissolved oxygen.
