A protest was organized by more than hundred Jaffna fishing families in front of the Indian consulate this morning against Indian fishermen straying into Sri Lankan fishing waters. The protestors were demanding that the Indian fishermen stop robbing their resources and driving them to starvation.

The protest was a silent protest with participants covering their eye and mouths with black ribbon. (Parameshwaren - Jaffna)
