People who fish in Rameswaram, India, are upset because one of their friends got put in jail in Sri Lanka. The person’s name is A. Salson, and he’s from Thangachimadam in Ramanathapuram district. He was on a boat with 18 other people that left Rameswaram on February 8.
This news has made all the fishermen worried, especially in Tamil Nadu, where fishermen often have trouble with Sri Lanka. V.P. Sesuraja, who leads a group called the Traditional Indian Fishermen Welfare Association, is sad about how often Tamil Nadu fishermen get arrested and sent to jail by Sri Lanka.
This incident reminds everyone about how dangerous it can be for Indian fishermen near the border between India and Sri Lanka. When fishermen get arrested like this, it causes problems for them and their families.
The fishermen want the governments of India and Sri Lanka to talk and find a way to stop this from happening again. They’re working to bring Salson and his friends back home safely.
