According to the former MP, two options could be considered by the government to enhance the plan expenditure of the Department of Fisheries. When the Plan outlay is ?2,750 crore, 9% of it , or ?248 crore, should be the outlay for the Department of Fisheries. The second option is that the government allocates 60% of what the Fisheries Sector contributes to the State Domestic Product, that is ?188 crore out of ?313 crore. Fisheries alone produced 17.2% of the output of the primary sector including agriculture and animal husbandry in the last four years. At any rate, the annual plan expenditure should be stepped up from the present ?47 crore and it should range from ?188 crore to ?248 crore.
