Udupi: Fishermen staged a massive protest urging the government to find out the seven fishers, who, along with their boat, have gone missing a few days ago.
More than 30,000 fishermen led by Malpe Fishermen's Association blocked the road at Ambalapady on NH 66. They raised slogans seeking justice. The fishermen expressed outrage against the government for not finding the missing fishers even after 23 days.
The police have provided alternative arrangements for vehicles that arrive at Ambalpady National Highway on the backdrop of road blockage.

Washington: US President Donald Trump has said he has not yet considered whether he would continue the ceasefire involving Iran, while also claiming the United States holds the advantage in negotiations.
Speaking to reporters, Trump said he was prepared to make a deal with “whoever is running the show” in Iran.
“They are fighting with each other, there’s tremendous infighting. They’re probably fighting for leadership in many cases. I think they’re fighting not to be leader because we knocked out two levels of leaders,” he said.
Trump added, “When they want they can call me. We have all the cards, we’ve won everything.”
Referring to ongoing negotiations, he said, “They gave us a paper that should’ve been better. And, interestingly, immediately when I cancelled it [envoy trip to Pakistan], within 10 minutes we got a new paper that was much better.”
“We talked about they will not have a nuclear weapon, very simple … They offered a lot, but not enough,” he added.
When asked whether he would continue the ceasefire, Trump replied, “I haven’t even thought about it.”
The remarks come as uncertainty remains over the future of the temporary truce and broader negotiations between Washington and Tehran.
