“We are fishermen”. “We can live only in coastal line areas”. “From Thondamanaru to Keerimalai, 12 kilo meters long coastal line is under the control of military”. “Why these lands are required to them”?
“We do not need the state compensation. We need our native soil” was said, by National Fishermen Coordination movement Coordinator A.Yesudasan.
“People’s lands should be released to people. If people desire only, could take their lands and could compensate them. But forcing people should not occur. You are to provide security only for people. Instead, people’s life should not be made a question mark?
