Formalin in Fish check: reality or myth

11 Aug 2018 06:26 PM

The controversy over formalin in fish refuses to die down. On Saturday Congress in Goa called upon the government to ban the import of fish until and unless mechanism is not in place to test the incoming fish at the borders.



Also though quite a lot of fish is exported, with some sources saying up to 40 per cent, Congress alleged that around 108 crore rupees goes as subsidy to fishermen annually.

President of Goa Pradesh Congress Committee Girish Chodankar said around 9 lakh Goan people and 20 lakh tourists eat fish.

He said the government should not play with the health of the people.
