Chinese nets are a way of fishing in India. Basically a huge net is lowered into the water and then after a pre-determined time they are raised again using a pulley system and hopefully the net will be full of fish, or at least have some fish to make it worthwhile. The egrets certainly think it's worthwhile, as the nets are raised they fly into them, hoping to pick off a snack sized meal.
