Families of the victims of boat mishap at Manuturu of Devipatnam mandal in East Godavari district, said that they have reached the banks as soon as they heard of the tragedy.
They hoped for sometime that their dear ones would come out safely. But when they realised that most of the victims were trapped in the launch that sank, they lost hopes. They are waiting for the officials to hand them the dead bodies of their family members so that they take them home. Tears welled up in their eyes.
