He says BJP govt. has let them down during pandemic
Former Fisheries Minister Pramod Madhwaraj on Thursday alleged that the BJP government that came to power in the State and at the Centre with the help of fishermen has ignored the communityhit hard by the COVID-19 pandemic.
Notwithstanding whether the sops announced by Chief Minister B.S. Yediyurappa on Friday would reach the targeted group, it was painful that a large proportion of vulnerable sections including fishermen have been ignored, he said. Marine fishing has been the backbone of the three coastal districts and its woes have only amplified after the lockdown.
