Talks between India and Sri Lanka needed to resolve attacks on Tamil fishermen: TN Min

-IANS/ TheNewsMinute.com

"The CM is of the opinion that both countries should conduct high-level talks and find a permanent solution to this issue, which will happen soon,” Radhakrishnan told reporters.

Tamil Nadu Minister for Fisheries and Animal Husbandry Anitha R Radhakrishnan said on Thursday that Chief Minister MK Stalin is of the view that talks between India and Sri Lanka are necessary to have a permanent solution to the attacks on Tamil fishermen by the Sri Lankan Navy. “Whenever such attacks take place, the Chief Minister immediately contacts the Prime Minister and the Union Home Minister. The Chief Minister is of the opinion that both countries should conduct high-level talks regarding this and find a permanent solution to this issue, which will happen soon,” Radhakrishnan told media persons.

Fishermen association leader Jesu Raju said, “Talks are necessary and important, as the Sri Lankan Navy behaves very rudely with our fishermen when they accidentally cross into Sri Lankan waters. Talks are important for a permanent solution to this problem.” Radhakrishnan also said that all efforts are being made to improve the ranking of Tamil Nadu to retain its position as the number one exporter of fish in the country, adding that the state has now slipped to fifth position.

He said that export of the freshwater fish would be promoted to get foreign currency like Andhra Pradesh which is exporting freshwater fish in huge numbers. Asked about the government fixing prices for the fish as demanded by some fishermen’s bodies, the minister said, “We have to make a decision taking into consideration all the factors related to this. We will have discussions with the concerned people and officials and then see what could be done.”
