    Chennai - Chief Minister J Jayalalithaa has shot off
    another letter to Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday
    condemning the Sri Lankan Navy for the arrest of four
    more Tamil Nadu fishermen late Saturday. She had sent a
    letter on Saturday blaming the island nation for
    violating the fishing rights of the fishermen from the
    State and had demanded the annulment of the International
    Maritime Boundary Line (IMBL) at Palk Bay, which she
    described is the root cause of all the problems faced by
    the fishermen.

    Jayalalithaa pointed out in her letter on Tuesday,
    excerpts of which were released to the media, that the
    "unconstitutional ceding" of Katchatheevu, a small islet
    between the two countries, by the 1974 and 1976
    agreements was central to the problem. She also, though
    indirectly, blamed the Centre for not taking enough
    initiative to put an end to the continuous attacks on the
    Tamil Nadu fishermen by the Sri Lankan Navy.
