The photo of the fisher women with the black bandage over their eyes is not indicative of the ground realities and those explained in the interview being covered.

Narendra, the komaaaaali,

and the high pitched grating noises in the kyndi language that are constantly emitted out of his two inch thick segmented lips have landed up in Kerala today !!

And for what ?

The komaaaali, whose high pitched bellowing and screwed up facial expressions and stage theatrics and very high expense election campaigning have repeatedly come to nought in Kerala (with the vote share for his party staying frozen at 10 % despite all the labour and money), has once again forgotten all about it !

Like moth to the fire, the komaaaali returns yet again hoping that the high pitched inanities he emits will begin to get that extra 15 % vote share needed for his party to become a political contender in Kerala !

GOOD JOB DONE BY GOVERNMENTS

Some vested interests in the Kanyakumari District are misleading the fisher folks to protest unnecessarily even though the Coastal Guard, and the Indian Navy is doing the best it could to search for the missing fishermen. Even on the assurance from the Minister of Defense Mrs. Nirmala Sitaraman the agitation is carried on with a political intention. The announcement of a huge compensation of Rs 20 lakhs to the families of dead/missing fishermen is unwarranted and done with vote bank politics in mind. It is high time that agitations like this ( remember the one against Kudankulam instigated by the same groups)must be nipped in the bud.

Do you have any idea about the capacity of Coast Guard and its restrictions? First the warning agst Cyclone is just before a day whereas fishermen regularly as usual left the shore. There are three types of fishing 1. going & coming on the same day or next with short distance. 2. these fishermen goes for between 200-300 nautical miles used to return within 7/8 days. 3. these fishermen goes above 400 nautical miles used to return 30-45 days. It seems the govt does not have proper records such as number of boats and number of persons go into sea. There is no record at all for the fishermen go in small boats. Still even after 15 days the govt is not sure of missing of boats and number of men. The govt is forced to take census from each and every houses to ascertain missing fishermen. It is a known fact that we have more number of fleets in navy and planes in air force. Here the question is whether their services have been utilised. Two state minister and a central minister after three days of occurrence visited in a village there while there were so many villagers were affected and CM came after 13 days. - it is regrettable to state that entire state ministry was busy in conducting 100th birth anniversary of late CM, MGR - Was it fair while people were in distress. Group instigated: It is mere politics with no sense of responsibility of human life 0ver over 600. This number is little high over the deaths happened during sunami. People could understand when agony comes to t
