Pawar's visit comes as members of the fishing community continue to raise concerns over issues affecting their livelihoods and the Sassoon Dock

Pawar assured the aggrieved fishermen that he would personally raise their concerns with Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis and the concerned Cabinet ministers

Pawar's interaction with the fishermen provided an opportunity for the community to directly present its grievances and seek government intervention

The NCP (SP) chief's assurance is expected to put the fishermen's demands on the government's agenda as discussions continue over the future of Sassoon Dock and the interests of Mumbai's traditional fishing community

He said he would take up the issues within the next eight days and work towards finding a solution
