The Communist Party of India’s Tamil Nadu State Secretary, R. Mutharasan, has appealed to the Centre to find a lasting solution to the issue of Tamil Nadu fishermen becoming the target of Sri Lankan Navy.
Talking to reporters at Thiruthuraipoondi on Friday, he alleged that the Centre accords step-motherly treatment to the problem faced by the Tamil Nadu fishermen in the sea. Although Chief Minister M.K. Stalin had written to the Centre to find a lasting solution, the Centre remained inactive.
Regarding the Cauvery water issue, the CPI leader wanted the Centre to take steps to ensure smooth water sharing between Karnataka and Tamil Nadu without affecting each ones interest.
