Fernandes visited the fish vendors at the Chaudi fish market as promised before election and heard their grievances.   
While interacting with the fisher women, Fernandes said, “The municipal council failed to take care of the long pending issues of toilet and water. This is not fair. If the fish vendors need to make proper use of the market, it has to be also maintained properly and adequately.”
