At least 88 people, mostly tourists, were rescued from a boat that capsized on the Arabian Sea near the Mandwa Jetty Raigad, on Saturday morning, a police official said. The incident occurred when the boat was barely a kilometer away from the jetty.

On Saturday around 10.15 am, the boat named Ajantha left from the Gateway of India to Mandwa. Just when the boat was nearing the jetty, passengers realised it was capsizing. A quick-thinking constable at the spot, identified as Prashant Gharat, alerted fishermen at the jetty after which the passengers were rescued.
