A fish farm in the Kilam area of south Kashmir’s Kulgam district has suffered a devastating loss, with thousands of fish found dead.

The farm owner, speaking to The Kashmiriyat, blamed contaminated water from the ongoing construction of the Brazloo Bridge for the mass die-off.

The owner expressed deep concern over the situation, stating, “Our entire family depends on this fish farm for our livelihood. The water contamination caused by the bridge construction has completely wiped out our fish stock.”

Faced with significant financial loss, the farm owner is appealing to the district administration for compensation to help recover from the crisis.
