A Case Study in Mismanagement: The Indian Fisheries Story

[Bhaijaan]

India is one of the world’s largest fish producers, yet the sector is weighed down by systemic failures.

Around 20–25% of the catch is lost post-harvest due to weak cold chains, poor handling, and inadequate storage, directly cutting fisher incomes.

Marine stocks are under stress from overfishing and weak enforcement, while small fishers struggle with limited access to formal credit and insurance, leaving middlemen to capture most value.

Exports, especially shrimp, are over-dependent on the US and EU, exposing the sector to trade shocks. Climate variability is already reducing marine landings in some regions.

Like everything else in India, the entire system is corrupt to the core. Incompetent babus and corrupt middlemen will never let the country achieve its true potential.

Sectors like these should be flourishing and raking much more money for fishermen and the country.

It’s a shame.

Sri Lankan Navy Arrests 10 Indian Fishermen For Alleged Poaching​

At least 30 Indian fishermen were repatriated from Sri Lanka on Tuesday, authorities said.​

Colombo:
At least 10 Indian fishermen have been arrested and their trawler confiscated by the Sri Lankan Navy for alleged poaching in Sri Lankan waters.

A release from the Sri Lankan Navy on Thursday said it seized an Indian fishing boat and apprehended 10 Indian fishermen while they were poaching in Sri Lankan waters in the sea area North of Mannar on Wednesday.

So far this year, the Sri Lankan Navy has seized 16 trawlers and arrested 112 Indian fishermen for alleged poaching.

At least 30 Indian fishermen were repatriated from Sri Lanka on Tuesday, authorities said.

The fishermen issue is a contentious one in the ties between India and Sri Lanka, with Lankan Navy personnel even firing at Indian fishermen in the Palk Strait and seizing their boats in several alleged incidents of illegally entering Sri Lankan territorial waters.

The Palk Strait, a narrow strip of water separating Tamil Nadu from Sri Lanka, is a rich fishing ground for fishermen from both countries.

Fishermen from both countries are arrested frequently for inadvertently trespassing into each other's waters.
