India, March 30 -- Illegal LED fishing activities have resurfaced along the coast of Patnem, raising serious concerns among local fishing communities.

Councillor Shubham Komarpant has urged the government to take stringent action against those involved in the practice, warning that it is severely affecting the livelihoods of traditional fishermen.

According to Komarpant, the use of LED lights for fishing is leading to a sharp decline in fish catch for local fishermen, making it increasingly difficult for them to sustain their income.

He called for immediate intervention by authorities to curb the illegal activity and protect the interests of the traditional fishing community in the region.
