Fishing season good, but rising costs hurt boat owners: Jose Philip D’Souza

Goa’s fishing season ended on a positive note, but boat owners face their own struggles

Former minister and president of the Goa Fishing Boat Owners Association Jose Philip D'Souza said the recently concluded fishing season was satisfactory, but boat owners are facing challenges due to a shortage of labourers and rising fuel prices.

D'Souza urged the government to restart the fuel subsidy scheme, stating that it is essential to support the fishing community and help sustain Goa's traditional fishing industry.
