Rough sea keeps fishermen at bay
Staff Reporter
CHENNAI: Seawater ingress in some parts of Marina on Friday gave anxious moments to the visitors to the beach.
According to eyewitnesses, tidal waves swept beyond the shore in the afternoon, creating a scare. The tidal wave activity contributed to the puddle of rainwater on the shore opposite Vivekananda Illam.
Chennai District Collector R. Jaya and Chennai Corporation Commissioner Rajesh Lakhoni visited the spot around 3 p.m. Speaking to mediapersons, Ms. Jaya said the sea was usually rough during the full and new moon period. Fishermen said the sea had been rough for nearly five days and it made them jobless and kept their boats and nets idle. Fishermen along the Marina coast in Nochikuppam, Doomingkuppam, Mullaimanagar and Srinivasapuram were affected. Regional Meteorological Centre officials said no earthquake was recorded anywhere near the Indian coastal waters.
