Take up pisciculture, go for solar energy: Nitish Kumar to farmers

PATNA/CHHAPRA: Chief minister Nitish Kumar on Sunday asked the officials of Saran district to promote the trend of ‘Niche Machchli Upar Bijli’ in ‘chour’ (wetland) areas to increase production of fish along with solar power.

Addressing a meeting to review the development works under the ‘Jal-Jivan-Hariyali Abhiyan’ at the Saran collectorate in Chhapra, the CM said maximum number of farmers should be motivated to construct ponds in such a way that fisheries could be done in the pond and solar energy can be generated from the makeshift top of the solar panels.
