After the goa government imposed a lot of restrictions on import of fish to goa, now those who sell fish from goa are facing problems, especially in the neighboring states of Karnataka and Maharashtra
Many of the fish caught in goa, like tuna, ribbon fish are not consumed locally in goa, they are exported to other states.
Since goa is a major importer of fish from other states, the fishermen in these states have been adversely affected.
So the vehicles of fish exporters from goa have been stoned and damaged in other states.
In some cases, the fish exporter vehicles from goa were blocked at the border checkpost according to media reports
