PERAMBALUR: Chidambaram MP and Viduthalai Chiruthaigal Katchi (VCK) chief Thol Thirumavalavan on Sunday accused the union government of handling the issue of Tamil Nadu fishermen being arrested by the Sri Lankan Navy with indifference.
“The arrest of Tamil Nadu fishermen has been an ongoing issue. Both the state and central governments have made efforts to resolve it, but the centre has shown no real interest. They treat it as a state-specific issue and ignore it. If the centre wanted, it could resolve the issue easily, given its strong diplomatic ties with Sri Lanka,” Thirumavalavan said.
