Ship catches fire near Mumbai, many stuck

Mumbai:  Many people are feared stuck on a ship, INS Vindhyagiri, which caught fire early on Monday morning near the Naval dockyard in Mumbai. The ship had collided with another vessel, MV Nordlake, on Sunday.

There were reports that the Naval dockyard could not control the fire and had sought help from the Mumbai Fire Brigade, which sent eight fire tenders and four jumbo tankers to douse the fire.

A tug has also been sent for rescue operations.
