After a drop in supply of sea fish, fear among buyers over riverine fish from two states is likely to hit the business in city markets KOLKATA: Fish traders as well as customers have become wary of riverine fishes that arrive from Uttar Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh after Covid bodies were found floating in rivers in these two states. Scientists, too, don’t dismiss the wariness as unfounded and say immediate steps are required to ensure such incidents don’t recur. Around 3.5 tonne-4 tonne of fishes from these two states daily arrive in Kolkata on board vendor compartments in trains. Rohu, katla, tyangra, boal and aar are among the varieties of fish that are imported from these states. In addition, fishes arrive in Bengal from Gujarat, Maharashtra and Andhra Pradesh.
