Madhwaraj seeks bailout package for fishermen hit by COVID-19 restrictions

‘BJP that emotionally used fishermen to come to power has ignored them’ Former fisheries Minister Pramod Madhwaraj on Thursday alleged that the BJP that came to power in the State and at the Centre with the help of fishermen has ignored the community when it was hit hard by COVID-19. 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 in society, including the fishermen, have been ignored, he said.
