Gujarat extends Arabian Sea fishing ban until August 15 amid opposition from Congress party.
Gujarat extends Arabian Sea fishing ban until August 15, drawing opposition from Congress party. The ban was initially set to end on August 1, but was extended due to a fishermen's association request for more time to allow fish to breed. The Congress party argues the decision will cause financial losses for fishermen, who they say are not provided support during the ban period. The extension could be adopted by other western coastal states.
