The second round of people to people dialogue between Indian and Sri Lanka fishermen has been announced to be held in May. This dialogue was scheduled in March while the Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu had cancelled the dialogue claiming to release all Indian fishermen and boats before continue the second round of talks.
The Sri Lankan President had ordered to release all the Indian fishermen held in Sri Lankan jails after India had absentia at the voting of the US sponsored resolution at Geneva. Also some Sri Lankan media reported that the Indian fidhermen carried out fishing operations close to Katchchathivu island.
Now the hopes of the Sri Lankan fishermen are fading away of the dialogues and we are awaiting to see how SL authorities take actions over the Indian trawler issues.
