Anthropogenic factor is an important issue for environmental pollution that leads to destruction of aquatic Environment, in the context of changing climate. The study was conducted through primary investigation coupled with a stakeholder driven approach. It may cause large scale destruction of aquatic organisms, particularly fishes. Chaltia Bil is one of the important wetlands of Murshidabad district and is located under Bhakuri Gram Panchayat, adjacent to Berhampore Municipality of the District. The water quality parameters indicated the highly productive nature of the wetland. The APC of bacteria ranged from 4950 to 5800 with an average value of 5350±720 CFU/ml. The trophic state index (67.7) indicated eutrophic nature. The present fish yield realized through culture-based fisheries (CBF) practices from Chaltia Bil is 4745 kg/ha/yr which is much higher than the average yield of wetlands of India. The study describes the SWOT analysis, discusses different approaches, and recommends important measures for sustainable management of ecosystem and fisheries of the sewage fed floodplain wetland.
