Fisheries Ministry team obstructed by Dhevvadhoo fishermen

Dhevvadhoo fishermen blocked a Fisheries Ministry team visiting the island to provide information on loans for installing RO plants on fishing vessels to keep freshly caught fish cold.

When a team from the ministry visited Dhevvadhoo yesterday afternoon, the local fishermen expressed their dissatisfaction and forced the team to leave the island. Videos from the scene circulating on social media show the team members surrounded and fishermen shouting at them.
