Gradual fall by 2-4 degree Celsius in minimum temperatures is likely over many parts of interior Maharashtra, the south Gujarat region, and south Madhya Pradesh during the next three days, the India Meteorological Department (IMD) said in its latest bulletin issued on Saturday afternoon.
As many as 6 Indian fishermen were arrested by the Sri Lankan Navy early on Sunday and several others were chased away by them while fishers staged a protest here seeking their immediate release.On Saturday night many fishermen from here ventured for fishing in mechanised fishing boats and even as they were engaged in fishing close to the Gulf of Mannar, they were apprehended by Lankan Navy, P Sesuraja, a fishermen leader said.
The presence of the legal trade in Sri Lanka means Indian fishers can smuggle their catches into the country and launder them into the legal market for export.
