The Union government's draft Indian Marine Fisheries Bill, 2021, has stirred up a wider protest among the fisher community across the country. Fisherfolks in Tamil Nadu have staged several protests since the draft Bill was published. The Fishermen Federation, an umbrella body of several unions, held a one-day rally at Marina Beach in Chennai on August 9 and called for a sustained agitation against the Bill. They allege that the Bill will destroy traditional fishing in various ways and favour big players to capture the sea wealth. To understand this crucial issue, watch Newsclick's ground report.
