AIADMK’s former coordinator O. Panneerselvam on Monday stated that the continued occurrence of incidents such as the arrest of Tamil Nadu fishermen by Sri Lankan authorities created a “sense of insecurity” among the State’s fisherfolk.
Requesting Prime Minister Narendra Modi to take steps for the release of fishermen and the return of fishing vessels, Mr. Panneerselvam, in a letter, said the “targetting” of fishermen continued unabated despite India’s “numerous goodwill gestures” towards Sri Lanka, including the latest resumption of ferry services.
