Description Many fish species on the Vizag coast continue to lose their habitat and are slowly disappearing due to rising sea pollution owing to release of untreated sewerage and other toxic elements into it. Environmentalists opine that the coastal fishes, having low temperature resistance, are either being killed or moving away from the shore due to release of hot water from power plants, after being used for cooling purpose.

Dr. Shubhadeep Ghosh, senior scientist at Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute (CMFRI), Visakhapatnam regional centre said, “There are many fish in danger on the Vizag coast under the impact of industrial effluents being released into sea. Hilsa, Lethrinus, Polynemus and Threadfins are the major fish species experiencing threat in the coast as per our surveys. The fish die in large numbers at times.”
