“No solution has been found despite long discussions held twice by fishermen representatives of both countries (on fishing rights on Palk Strait).
Contrary to expectations that arrest of the fishermen would end after BJP government was formed, it keeps continuing,” he said.
“Therefore, I urge the Modi-led Central government to immediately come forward to find out a permanent solution for this issue,” he said in a statement here.
He was responding to the arrest of 73 Indian fishermen by the Sri Lankan navy on June 7.
