Karnataka MP Allocates ₹7,430 Cr to Transform Halali, Indirasagar Dams into Fisheries Models

The Karnataka Member of Parliament has earmarked ₹7,430 crore to upgrade Halali and Indirasagar dams into flagship fisheries projects. The funding will support modern fish farming techniques, infrastructure development and an upcoming fisheries expo. Both dams, located in the state’s western region, are already major water reservoirs but lack advanced aquaculture facilities. The investment aims to boost local fish production, create employment and position the dams as models for sustainable fisheries in India.
