The present study is an attempt to understand the problems and issues faced by the fishing community in Kendrapara district of Odisha. The study mainly focused on the reasons behind their deprivation and poor condition. The data were collected from both primary and secondary sources. The fishermen are mainly dependent on fishing as their only source of livelihood. The fishermen have various problems faced in their daily life cycle. So, they are mostly from merchants where the interest rate is high and they become poor. The food, poor healthcare, poor sanitation, and increased intake of alcohol were found to be the major issues. The most important thing changing the climate is seasonal unemployment. We all know fishermen are in the domain of economic and social backward sector of society. The majority of the fishermen do not have their boats. The majority of them work as daily wage labor. Consequently, the absolute benefits of fishing are enjoyed by rich boat owners instead of the daily waged fishermen.
