As a goodwill measure on the occasion of Narendra Modi's swearing-in President Mahinda Rajapaksa has instructed the officials to release all Indian fishermen in Sri Lankan custody as soon as possible, the President's office said.

Rajapaksa tweeted, "As a goodwill measure on the occasion of Narendra Modi's swearing-in, President instructs officials to release Indian fishermen in custody."

Ministry of External Affairs spokesperson Syed Akbaruddin said, "Looking forward to return of five fishermen to home in India from Sri Lanka after announcement by President Rajapaksa today."

Pakistan government has decided to release 152 Indian fishermen and a team from Gujarat has been sent to receive them on the Wagah border in Punjab, a senior state government official said on Saturday.

I don't think it was done to appease the insignificant lunatics in Tamil nadu but rather a smart move to curry favour with Modi. Nice to start this relationship on a good footing.
