Sri Lankan govt. should identify the guilty and punish them, says BJP leader
BJP State president K. Annamalai wrote to Union Minister for External Affairs S. Jaishankar on Thursday seeking action against unidentified persons on Sri Lankan boat who attacked Indian fishermen.
He referred to the incident yesterday in which seven fishermen from Nagapattinam were attacked “supposedly by those travelling in Sri Lankan boats.”
While one of the fishermen’s fingers were chopped, the belongings of these fishermen worth ₹5 lakh were robbed, he charged. Sri Lankan government should be asked to identify the people involved in this gruesome incident, retrieve the belongings of the fishermen and punish the guilty.
