Locals demand testing of water and fish samples
Bogolu, Bitragunta: There are many suspicions about fishing and fish sales in Bogolu mandal. Locals are wondering whether any chemicals are being added to the water during fishing. Similarly, there are allegations that harmful chemicals are being used in the fish market to make the fish look fresh.
Locals are concerned that the use of chemicals during fishing could affect water quality and aquatic life. On the other hand, consumers are also expressing doubts about the quality of fish sold in the market.
Demand for inspections by officials
In this context, the locals are requesting that the Fisheries Department and relevant authorities inspect the fishing areas and, if necessary, collect water samples and fish samples and test them in a recognized laboratory. They are also requesting that surprise inspections be conducted in the fish market and the quality of the fish being sold be checked.
People are demanding legal action against those responsible if tests confirm the use of chemicals contrary to regulations. They are appealing to the authorities to pay special attention to quality and safety, from fishing to sale in the market.
