Local resident Mohammad Fazal (38), who managed to rescue one of the fishermen, lost his life in his bid to save another fisherman.

There were three fishermen on-board the ill-fated boat. They are Manex (45), Kumaran (30) and Chandan, all three fishermen from Tamil Nadu.

During its fishing expedition on Saturday afternoon the boat began to sink near a mouth of estuary due to turbulent weather. The helpless fishermen started screaming for help.

Fazal, a resident of Kotepura in Ullal, who witnessed this tragedy, jumped into see and with the help of his friend Rameez managed to rescue Manex.

Fazal once again jumped into see to help the other fishermen. However, his head hit a rock in the sea and he breathed his last at a hospital. Fazal was known in Ullal area as a Good Samaritan.

Meanwhile, Kumaran was saved by the Coast Guard through a helicopter. Chandan is still missing and he is feared dead. The Coast Guard personnel have continued search operation.

Dragging religion on terrroism - Its also a narrow minded deception from the media.. right . When someone does good it irks others..

Inala lilai wainail rajoon

Nowardays people think Muslim's are bad, even if they do a job still some non Muslim's problem, as per u all know.... Instead praying for them for rest in peace ,bringing religious issues and matter in middle.... My people pray for them ...and leave all hateness between religion.... Pray allah u give them high place and degree in janah

Dear Manoj,
The intention of specifying the rescuer as MUSLIM, is just to show dot those ill minded people who have negative image on all Muslims.

This is the logic behind it. Everybody should know though the choice of religion is their own will/ business. However maintaining harmony with other religion has no bound and no barrier.

Unfortunately religion has been identified in the society as TITLE of Criminals OR Innocents.
We are way behind KERALITES as they live together peacefully with cooperation, in harmony, keeping the religion as their own business.
Religion never says to severe the relation with others.
Let us make our living style also same as Keralites or better than them.
May God Help

Here's the first phase flight plan for return of Indian nationals stranded abroad

coastaldigest.com news network

May 5,2020

Newsroom, May 5: Following the union government's nod, preparations are afoot to bring back Indian nationals stranded abroad from May 7 onwards.

According to sources, in the first phase from May 7- 14, the government would allow more than 60 “non-scheduled, commercial” flights to operate from about 12 countries to India to bring back 15,000 citizens. At least half of those flights will be from the Gulf region, including UAE, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Kuwait and Oman, while the rest would bring passengers from the U.S., the U.K., Singapore, Malaysia, Philippines and Bangladesh.

The flights would be spread over 10 States identified as having the largest numbers to return, with Kerala, Tamil Nadu and Delhi (NCR) receiving the maximum number of flights.

A meeting held at the Ministry of Civil Aviation looked specifically at flights, mainly operated by Air India, while it awaits a final plan from countries where Indians need to be airlifted from. The first flights planned at present are from Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Riyadh and Doha, flying directly to Kozhikode and Kochi.

While the full estimate of Indians needing to return home could cross ten lakhs (a million), with more than two lakhs having registered to return from the UAE alone, officials said their return would be “prioritised and staggered”.
