Fishers up in arms against blue economy draft policy

Fishers up in arms against blue economy draft policy Updated: Updated: They term it as ‘extremely dangerous’ for the sector Share Article They term it as ‘extremely dangerous’ for the sector Fishers in the State have risen as one against the draft policy framework on India’s blue economy, which envisages using marine resources for sustainable development. Fishers’ unions cutting across political divisions will meet here on Saturday to discuss the fallout of the policy framework, which contains “extremely dangerous recommendations” for the fisheries sector. The recommendations come close on the heels of a proposal for a national fisheries policy, which does not address the needs of traditional fishers, said Charles George of the Matsya Thozhilali Aikya Vedhi. He added that the policy favoured big capital, while it appeared to be balanced against local fishers, who eke out a living from traditional fishing.
