Fisherfolk threaten to continue protests

Fisherfolk launched an indefinite protest on Monday to express their outrage at the official laxity in resolving the issues related to those displaced from the Krishnapatnam port area. Leaders of the fishermen forums declared that they would not relent till all their demands were addressed by the government. To emphasis their sorry state of affairs, the fisherfolk also brought pots and vessels and started cooking food on the premises of the fisheries office in Nellore town.
