Mangaluru, Nov 18: Dakshina Kannada district in-charge minister U T Khader has warned the government of Goa that Karnataka too may impose ban on fish from the tiny neighbouring state if it fails to lift ban on fish from Karnataka.

Speaking to media persons here, Mr Khader, who is also the minister for Urban Development and Housing, said that his cabinet colleague and fisheries minister Venkatarao Nadagouda will hold talks with his Goa counterpart to resolve the issue.

Mr Khader said that Goa government has no proper evidence that fish from Karnataka is laced with formalin. “It’s a baseless allegation by Goa authorities,” he said.

“If they don’t lift the ban, we will not allow fish from Goa in to Karnataka. Fifty percent of the people in coastal Karnataka eke out their livelihood from fishing. How can they ban it overnight?” he questioned.

Goa fish trucks sent back

Meanwhile, on Saturday, four trucks laden with fish from Goa were turned away from the Karnataka border at Polem after a huge crowd of local fishermen, fish traders and trawler owners gathered at the spot to protest the decision of the Goa government to ban the import of fish from other states.

Udupi, Jan 16: The mandatory implementation of FASTag, across the country, was not enforced in the toll gates located in Udupi and Dakshina Kannada districts.

The toll gate personnel cited that they had not received any directions from the NHAI and hence vehicles were being allowed to ply as per the current practice.

As per government order, two gates each have to be reserved for locals, emergency entry and cash transactions. All other lanes are to be used for FASTag.
