distressed fish farmers in an effort to revive the fish business.

demand and production has been narrowing because to programmes like the Chief
Minister Samagra Gramya Unnayan Yojana (CMSGUY), the Pradhan Mantri Matsya
Sampada Yojana (PMMSY), and Ghare Ghare Pukhuri Ghare Ghare Maach. Currently,
96% of the overall demand has been met, according to Suklabaidya.
