Subject: Illegal Fishing in
River Zuari
Madam/ Sir,
There
are fresh spate of illegal fishing by trawlers and mini purse seine boats in
Zuari river as under:
1.
Every night there is illegal fishing by trawlers and mini purse
seine boats between 8.30 pm to 3.30 pm. Number of boats range between two to
eight.
2.
On 30/03/2018 at 7.30 am thirty five mini purse seine boats
carried on illegal fishing. It was Good Friday Holiday.
3.
On 29/03/2018 at 6.00 am eight mini purse seine boats carried on
illegal fishing in Zuari.
4.
On 28/03/2018 at 10.00 pm eight trawlers carried on illegal
fishing in Zuari
All the
four cases mentioned above indicate failure of surveillance system of the
Fisheries Department as well of Goa Police. We call upon you
1.
To immediately tighten up the security measures and stop ongoing
illegalities.
2.
Efficient co-ordination between police and Fisheries department.
3.
Involve Goa University, Colleges, Schools and other educational
institutions in Goa to create awareness about ethical fishing and protection of
rivers from purse seine and trawler fishing which is ecologically dangerous.
Thanking
you,
Yours
sincerely,
