Khagaria, which is the administrative headquarter of the Khagaria District in Bihar, along with diversified gifts from the mother nature, possesses substantial fisheries resources, largely because of the network of rivers, ponds, and wetlands. Aquaculture employs several ponds and wetlands in the district, thereby enhancing fish productivity and supporting aquaculture endeavours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
