Stating that attacks on Indian fishermen by the Sri Lankan Navy has dropped, External Affairs Minister S.M. Krishna said Wednesday he would take up the issue when he visits Colombo soon.

'Recently we have had an incident in which a fisherman was reportedly killed. However, there has been a significant decrease in the incidents after 2008,' Krishna said following a calling attention motion by AIADMK member V. Matireyan.


'Soon I am going to Sri Lanka to strengthen bilateral ties. (This issue) will be taken up with the Sri Lankan government,' he said in the Rajya Sabha. 'Any discussion with Sri Lanka is never complete without taking up the issue of (Indian) fishermen.'
