Assam’s Blue Revolution: Aqua Tech Park Opens, Promises Fish Production Boom
Assam Chief Minister Hemanta Biswa Sarma inaugurated India’s first Aqua Tech Park in Sonapur on Saturday, July 12, 2025. The ambitious project aims to significantly boost fish production within the state.
This innovative park is expected to revolutionize aquaculture practices in Assam. It will provide state-of-the-art facilities for research, development, and training in fish farming.
The initiative is a key component of the Assam government’s efforts to enhance the state’s agricultural sector and improve the livelihoods of its citizens. The park is projected to create numerous employment opportunities, particularly in rural areas.
The Aqua Tech Park’s success will be closely watched across India, as other states may look to replicate this model for sustainable aquaculture development. Its impact on Assam’s economy and food security will be a crucial factor in assessing its long-term effectiveness.
