💨 Abstract

The Dandi Hawar Fish Market in Sindhudurg, Maharashtra, serves over two to three lakh people and offers a rich variety of fish, including Kingfish, Pomfret, Tiger Prawns, and Bangda (Mackerel). Despite thriving trade, local fishermen face challenges such as outsiders entering their trade and politicians only addressing their concerns during election seasons. Healthcare support for women working in the market is another pressing issue.
