Udupi: The bodies of two young fishermen who had gone missing after their boat capsized at Alivegadde in Shiroor, Udupi district, on Sunday evening have been recovered on Monday morning.

The deceased fishermen have been identified as 22-year-old Mohammad Musab, the son of Musthafa from Gangolli, and 24-year-old Nazan, the son of Bavu Noorul Amin. Their bodies were discovered approximately 300 meters away from the location where the boat had capsized. Musab's body was found at 1:30 am on Monday, followed by the recovery of Nazan's body around 2:45 am.

The tragic incident unfolded when the young fishermen, accompanied by Alji Mohammed Yasin and Sarang Mushtaq, ventured to the Alivegadde mini port in Shiroor village to set out to sea on the fishing boat named 'Saifa,' owned by Kurdy Sadiq. While they were in the process of baiting their fishing net, a powerful sea wave struck their boat, causing it to capsize. This unfortunate turn of events resulted in the disappearance of Musab and Nazan.

Mumbai (PTI): Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde on Tuesday morning met Governor C P Radhakrishnan and tendered his resignation following the results of the assembly elections.

The governor asked Shinde to act as a caretaker chief minister till a new CM is sworn in.

Shinde visited the Raj Bhavan along with deputy Chief Ministers Devendra Fadnavis and Ajit Pawar.

The term of the Maharashtra assembly ends on November 26.

Despite the Mahayuti alliance of the BJP, Shinde-led Shiv Sena and Ajit Pawar's NCP securing a massive victory, winning 230 seats in the 288-member assembly, consensus has eluded the ruling combine’s leaders so far on who should be the next CM.
