Death row Indians in Lanka: Fish prices go up in TN as fishermen continue agitation

Written By Unknown on Selasa, 04 November 2014 | 17.34

MADURAI: Fish prices have gone up in Tamil Nadu due to the prolonged agitation of fishermen along the coastal areas in the southern districts.

Fishing activities were suspended as fishermen went on a rampage after five men from Rameswaram were sentenced to death by a Sri Lankan court on October 30. Expressing their solidarity with the Rameswaram fisherfolk, fishermen in Tuticorin, Kanyakumari Pudukottai and Nagapattinam districts also stopped fishing activities.

"Prices have gone up at least by Rs 50 on all fish varieties after the protest started," said Kayum Khan, a fish merchant in Madurai.

"Our fishermen are protesting in the coastal districts of southern Tamil Nadu and there is an impact on the prices of seafood," said Subash Fernando, coordinator of Federation of All Fishermen Associations in Tuticorin.
