Annexure 37-Statement of Mr. Maria Sajan Dass s/o Thatheus, St. Jude colony, Chinnathurai village<br />

My brother has sent a complaint regarding this to government officials including District<br />

Collector, Coast Guard and Ministers. If the government officials have started the<br />

rescue operations, then many live could have been saved. Many fishermen like would<br />

have suffered like us in the sea. Government is completely responsible for all the<br />

missing fishermen. Our boat including the fishing net and engine totally costs Rs.<br />

15,00,000/-<br />

We demand that the government should announce <strong>Cyclone</strong> <strong>Ockhi</strong> as a national<br />

disaster and ensure this does not happen to any other fisherman in the future.<br />
