How sad? They a have to be at their safety .Waring life jacket must be made mandatory for the fishermen to avoid any danger.

Aren’t fishermen provided any safety before venturing int m the sea ? The sea will be rough in rainy season and even the experts cannot swim. This year many bots have capsized
