Abstract
A sumptuous Bengali feast is incomplete without the hilsa . But very soon Bengalis in Bangladesh might well have to do without it. For, the population of hilsa -- the country's national fish -- is fast decreasing in its river system. This alarming trend has been triggered by factors such as overexploitation, dumping of industrial and domestic waste into waterbodies, construction of dams, and siltation.
