00:00 A huge fire broke out at the fishing harbour in Vishakhapatnam late last night which resulted
00:05 in at least 25 fishing boats turning into ashes.
00:10 The Indian Navy had to be brought in to bring the fire under control.
00:15 As per estimates, each boat cost around 15 lakh rupees, which puts the estimated loss
00:20 in Rs 4 to 5 crores range.
00:23 According to Police Commissioner of Vishakhapatnam, when fire started on a boat, it was cut off
00:28 and sent a drift to ensure that the fire did not spread to others.
00:33 But the winds and water flow brought it back to the jetties, which caused fire in other
00:39 boats too.
