Fishermen from Rameswaram and Pudukottai who are on a strike nerve-racking the birth of Tamil fishermen and boats seized by the Lankan Navy took sturdy objection to Sri Lankan Minister Douglas Devananda’s feedback that the captured boats would possibly perhaps well perhaps be provided off.

Fishermen who are in hiss said if of us who had been arrested are no longer released by December 31, they’ll shield a rail roko at Thangachimadam.
The fishermen also condemned the feedback of Douglas Devananda, the Fisheries Minister for Srilanka, who had said that action would possibly perhaps well perhaps be taken against fishermen who spoiled the border and their boats would possibly perhaps well perhaps be seized.
Douglas Devananda, who visited Myliddy port in Srilanka where the seized boats would possibly perhaps well perhaps be found, requested Tamilnadu fishermen no longer to enter their waters. He also claimed that the boats would possibly perhaps well perhaps be provided at auction and the money would possibly perhaps well perhaps be given to Northern Province fishermen.
“Our Northern Province fishermen’s nets had been damaged and possess sought compensation. Soon these nationalized boats will be provided in a refined draw and the money will be given to them,” said the Minister.
