Wholesale Fish Market With Modern Facilities At Koheda: Talasani

Hyderabad, Jan 7 (Maxim News): Minister for Animal Husbandry, Dairy Development, and Fisheries, Talasani Srinivas Yadav said a wholesale fish market with modern facilities would be set up on 10 acres of land at a cost of Rs. 50 crore at Koheda on the outskirts of the city.

Srinivas Yadav, who held a review meeting here on Friday, said the proposed fish market, along with the wholesale market, would have a retail market, cold storage, and canteen facilities. He said the fisheries sector has registered tremendous growth since the formation of Telangana and Chief Minister K. Chandrashekhar Rao was encouraging the sector in a big way by allocating adequate funds.

Srinivas Yadav said Telangana was now at the top in terms of inland fish farming and fish production has gone up to 4 lakh tonnes from 1.9 lakh tonnes since the State’s formation. He said modern fish markets were being set up across the state so that fishermen could get good prices.

The Minister directed officials to construct sheep and goat meat markets in all districts. He asked them to identify sites for setting up meat markets in districts and send proposals to their respective district Collectors. (Maxim News)
