It is shocking news to loose so many little children. It is very sad situation. 1. kerala has lot of boat services. it is better to verify the status of boat and licence by govt authorities. 2. we people before getting in look for whether they are qualified or not. by hanging their copy of licence/certificates in the front. 3. excursion leaders should be well knowledgable, before entering into risky actions. since we parents send our kids to schools by believing on teachers. but what happens is., kubakonam fire, so many schools mischief of teacher,student and external parties against girl child, lot of death in goa beach during excursion, now thattakad. pls put full stop for this. teachers are highly respectable position with greater responsibility. the entire future of our nation is in your hands. pls handle with more care.
