The bodies of 15 fishermen, who had been missing since three trawlers capsized on the Bay of Bengal on July 16, were recovered on Sunday after a search by the coast guard and fisheries department officials. Search is still on for four other missing fishermen. The adverse weather condition have been forcing fishermen to return from the deep sea from the very beginning of this season. On July 16, three trawlers in which fishermen had ventured out in the sea for fishing, capsized. Seventeen fishermen from one of the trawlers were rescued. The trawler, however, is yet to be found. But another 19 fishermen, who were in the other two trawlers went missing. One of the two capsized trawlers have also been found. The victims are all residents of Kakdwip and Frasergunge areas. Bijan Maity, secretary of West Bengal United Fishermen Association said search by the coast guard and fisheries authorities have been going on for the past one week to trace the missing fishermen. The bodies of 15 fishermen were recovered and search will go on to trace the rest of missing fishermen, he said.
