In a landmark step toward ecological restoration and sustainable development, the Department of Fisheries, Longding, has launched its first-ever River Ranching Program at the Tewai and Teru Rivers.
In the presence of Hon’ble Minister Shri Gabriel D Wangsu, over 90,000 fingerlings, including species like Rohu, Katla, Mirga, and more, were released into the rivers.
This initiative is designed to:
✅ Revive native fish populations
✅ Enhance biodiversity and protect aquatic ecosystems
✅ Promote sustainable fishing and support local livelihoods
