THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: Yet another boat that ventured into the sea with fishermen onboard capsized off Muthalapozhi harbour in Thiruvananthapuram. The accident took place while the fishermen were returning after fishing. It was the boat named Rahat that capsized at Pozhimugam. Four fishermen who were in the boat fell into the sea. Two fishermen have been rescued. A search is on for the remaining two.
Although the number of accidents is increasing day by day off Muthalapozhi, the authorities are unable to provide protection to the fishermen or their fishing equipment. If an accident happens to those who go fishing, it will be a little difficult to save them. The boat of Anchuthengu Coastal Police boat is not functioning.
