Help 6,000 stranded Andhra fisherman: Rahul Gandhi

Former Congress President Rahul Gandhi urged the government to help 6,000 fishermen from Andhra Pradesh who are stranded in Gujarat amid lockdown. “Over 6,000 fishermen from AP, stranded in Gujarat, have been confined to their tiny fishing trawlers for over a month, in unhygienic conditions with limited food & water. I appeal to the Govt to move my brothers to relief camps and ensure their well being,” Rahul Gandhi tweeted.
