Steps to be taken to restore lost beauty of Kaptai Lake: Minister


Fisheries and Livestock Minister Md Abdur Rahman said on Saturday necessary measures would be taken to bring back the lost beauty of Kaptai Lake in Rangamati.
He said this at a programme for fish fry release and VGF (rice) cards distribution among fishermen on the Kaptai Lake bank, reports UNB.
The minister said, "Kaptai Lake isn't in its previous beauty and form. But we want to bring back the previous beauty of the lake with joint efforts of all. To restore the beauty cooperation from common people is also needed alongside that from fishermen."
He urged the fishermen to refrain from fishing during the three-month ban in the lake and not to use the banned nets to catch fish in the water body.
Ban on fishing in the lake began on April 25 and it will continue till July 24 this year.
