Those are well plane missions, I guess TN is searching some gaps to send their “TN trained” LTTE carders to Sri lanka and disturbed again as they did previously..

Take this serious..

Why is it that they're able to get past both the Indian coastguard and the Sri Lanka navy? It shouldn't be the fishermens' job to stop or apprehend them

Sri Lankan fishermen are capable of catching both fish and Indian fishermen.
