Can I argue that if I drive at lower speed in our roads then I am inconvenienced even though a few people may get hit? Here we give importance to the safety and well being of individuals. However, the life of endangered olive ridley turtles is not valued. Hence we listen to the argument of some loss of catch by the fishermen and don't enforce the usage of TED.

It is sad that we are unable to enforce use of TED (Turtle exclusion device) in trawllers. Fishing within 5 kilometers of the coastline via trawllers should be banned.
