There is nothing to exchange.. The SLN need to start cracking some empty Tamil Nadu numb skulls to stop them from poaching again

From the thieves own words

The Rameswaram Port Mechanised Boats Fishermen Association President N. J. Bose told the Sunday Times the Indian fishermen had intensified poaching in Lankan waters soon after the new Government took office last month.

“We have initiated a campaign among our fisher folk community not to trespass into Lankan waters for fishing or destroy the Sri Lankan fishemen’s equipment. We have warned them if they do so, their fishing licences would be terminated,” Mr. Bose said.

The only thing deterred these poachers were confiscating thier boats.. They dont understand reasoning.. We're sick and tired of trying to explain this to Indians every time a thread comes up.. There are a dozen threads on PDF it self with long reasoning and sources.. If you care to search

This is a question of sovereignty, There should be no compromise.. The difference.. I'm a nationalist, He's a childish moron with a hatred for his political opponents, Going on rants with bolds and ridiculing his own country

The poor and starving rarely get deterred by threats of jail. They are desperate and will do what is required to be done.

Until you have experienced their despair its pointless to discuss with you. In any case India has an obligation to defend its weakest and poorest and will do what must be done.

They are not out to challenge your sovereignty, they don't care a rat's @ss about that. They are worried about their next meal and their kids education.

You approach such a problem with Insensitivity and arrogance and there will be a massive blow back. That is just Karma.

Fishermen are poor thats why they are repatriated as soon as they are arrested the trawler owners are not they are the mafia that includes most of the Tamil Nadu politicians.. Again i cant go on explaining this issue for the upteenth time for a Indian that is totally ignorant of the facts.. Just search for one of the many many threads discussed up on this very subject in PDF if you care to.. Tks

Lankan coast guard should give these fishers the life of pi

 

[Azizam]

They steal and ask for compensation.Then even dare to complain about our position towards Tamils while they are stealing SL Tamils' resources. Coast guard should drill some holes on their boats and leave them in the middle of the ocean.

Maithripala Sirisena continues to turn Sri Lanka into India's bitch. He releases thieving Indian fishermen, releases their trawlers and takes no action against thousands of poaching Tamil Nadu fishermen. India certainly has done well for itself by installing a puppet in Sri Lanka. Next, Modi is to visit Jaffna and see the land that he has conquered for India. Can you imagine the Pakistani leader visiting Kashmir on a trip to India? Meanwhile Sri Lanka's fools (@Gibbs @Saradiel @Azizam) continue to believe that Sri Lanka has been delivered a messiah.

Indian fishermen invading Lankan waters; no arrests

Minister says Navy will not take action to prevent poaching

Indian fishermen are continuing to gain unimpeded access to Sri Lanka’s territorial waters as the Navy is refraining from making any arrests of poaching fishermen, a top minister said yesterday. “We have to admit that no action is being taken against the Indian fishermen involved in poaching now,” former fisheries minister and now Health Ministry and Government Spokesman Rajitha Senaratne said.

Meanwhile Fisheries Ministry Secretary Nimal Hettiarachchi said the Government had asked for a postponement of the talks scheduled to be held in Chennai on March 5 as the top priority now was to implement the 100-day programme. A fresh date for talks would be set after discussions were held with Sri Lanka’s fishermen’s associations, he said.

Northern fisheries associations have lodged strong protests, saying Indian fishermen had intensified their poaching operations after the new Government took office. The Sri Lanka Navy has stopped arresting poaching Indian fishermen, after the new Government released all Indian fishermen in custody along with 87 trawlers.

“The fishermen in the north are worried about the unhindered access given to Indian fishermen without any action being taken against them. We have called a meeting of fishermen’s association in four districts to discuss the issue,” Northern Provincial fisheries Minister Balasubramaniam Deniswaran said.

Nortehrn fishermen’s associations are planning to have a series of protests over the presence of the Indian fishermen in Sri Lanka’s territorial waters. Justin Zoysa, President of the Mannar Fisheries Federation said the Indian fishermen could create a climate for talks by stopping poaching. ”Now they have started to invade our sea not only using illegal fishing methods but also destroying our equipment which our fishermen obtain through bank loans,” he said.

Mr. Zoysa said if the poaching continued the northern fishermen would capture the Indian fishermen in the sea and bring them to the shore. The Rameswaram Port Mechanised Boats Fishermen Association President N. J. Bose told the Sunday Times the Indian fishermen had intensified poaching in Lankan waters soon after the new Government took office last month.

“We have initiated a campaign among our fisher folk community not to trespass into Lankan waters for fishing or destroy the Sri Lankan fishemen’s equipment. We have warned them if they do so, their fishing licences would be terminated,” Mr. Bose said. He urged the Lankan fishermen to come for talks soon to work out a solution acceptable to both sides.”It is unfortunate that the talks are being delayed. Either side may have made some mistakes but with a healthy dialogue we can solve this issue,” he said.

The issues regarding poaching by fishermen figured prominently during President Maithripala Sirisena’s talks on Monday with Prime Minister Narendra Modi in New Delhi. Mr. Modi said he was willing to go ahead with proposals coming from the talks of the fishermen of the two countries. “We are encouraging the fishermen’s associations on both sides to meet again soon. They should find a solution that could be taken forward by both governments,” Premier Modi said.

The issue will be further discussed when Mr. Modi visits Sri Lanka from March 13 to 15.

Bangladeshis have very similar views as you. And Pakistan, well we have never been on good terms with india. perhaps we can cultivate alliances with each other. Btw Nepal too feels threatened and demands sikkim and darjeeling.

Is there any major territorial dispute between Lanka and India?
