Portrait of a worker at the Chattogram Fishery Ghat, located along the Karnaphuli River in Chattogram. The 200-year-old Chattogram Fishery Ghat is the nation's largest wholesale fish market. Meanwhile, all fishing boats are returning to the ghat ahead of Bangladesh's government-imposed 58-day fishing ban in the Bay of Bengal, which takes effect from April 15 to June 11, 2025. The ban, which applies to all types of fishing vessels and species, including the prized Hilsa, is a vital conservation measure aimed at ensuring sustainable breeding, production, and preservation of marine fish resources.
