Sri Lankan Navy snaps fishing nets of TN fishermen
Over 2,000 Tamil Nadu fishermen returned without a catch on Tuesday after Sri Lankan Navy personnel allegedly snapped the fishing nets of 30 mechanised boats. They asked the fishermen to return and warned them against fishing near Katchatheevu in the Palk Strait. Following this, the Rameswaram Fishermen Association's President urged the Centre to retrieve Katchatheevu, ceded to Sri Lanka.
