Full text not available from this repository. (Request a copy)Abstract
In India, over nine million people directly depend on fisheries for their livelihood of which 80 per cent are small scale fishers. Fishing is mainly carried out with traditional fishing crafts, motorized boats and small mechanized crafts. Fishers have not ventured into the sea since 20 March 2020. The annual fishing ban period is usually from April 15 till June 15 along the east coast of India. So, there is huge pressure among the fishers, fish vendors and fishing labourers as a result of the lockdown.
