According to reports at 10.30 pm today February 18, 2023 eight trawlers are carrying on illegal fishing in Zuari river. They have reached deep inside river at Nauxim and Siridao.
Fisheries department has refused to act for obvious reasons. Police says they can't act unless it is joint operation between police and Fisheries department.
Fisheries department is not going for joint operation with Police against illegal trawling as Fisheries department most likely has joint operation with illegal trawling in zuari captained by history sheeter Kukalkar from Vasco. It is more rewarding operation with haftas in kind and cash.
Goa Fisheries Minister Nilkant Halarnkar says he has increased registration fees and license fees of fishing to build Jetties. He looks content with paralyzed patrol boat of the Fisheries department that is perennially non-working condition.
This is the way Goa Fisheries are being deliberately destroyed by Goa Fisheries department.
Fishermen on the zuari river are ready to co-operate with Fishieres department and Police. Fisheries department is determined to promote illegal trawling in Zuari and creates countless hurdles in the path of crackdown on illegal trawling in Zuari river.
We are in times when Goa's Fisheries Department stinks.
