Daijiworld Media Network—Mangalore (TU/CN)

Mangalore, Mar 15: Giant waves on the beaches at Bekal Fort and Maravanthe brought back memories of the treacherous tsunami that hit the Indian coast a few years ago, in the minds of fishermen on Friday March 13.

Sources said that the fishermen were apprehensive about venturing out to sea for fishing following the occurrence of massive waves on Friday. More than a half kilometre of the beach came under the sea water. 

Five makeshift boat sheds, fishing nets, and a small bridge in Pallikere were washed away by the giant waves. No causalities have been reported.

Concerned officials concerned and the Tahsildar visited the spot.

    There is something strange happening in our coastal environment. I find nature responds to the human climate: when they behave in a bizarre fashion so does it.

    The belief which came from by elders to me is that when the land and its people are clean no power on earth can shake them because Almighty will protect them But when people become unclean and land becomes dirty because of people's sin then except Almighty nobody can save us. Now the coastal people of Karnataka u can choose what they want. God save Karnataka and Indians.
