The vessel overturned off the coastal town of Tanur because it was overcrowded, according to officials.

Most of the victims were children on school holidays, Kerala’s minister for fisheries and harbour development said. Dozens of people searched on Sunday night for survivors in and around the stricken vessel, which was partially submerged.
