All the fishermen from Porbandar, Somnath and Gir areas of Gujarat have been in Lathi Jail near Karachi for many years. Now that they have been released, the family members have thanked the government. Last month also, the Pakistani government released 199 fishermen due to the actions of the Indian government.
