India Equips Fishing Vessels with Transponders for Safety

India is giving fishing boats special devices called transponders.

These devices use satellites to help track the boats and keep fishermen safe.

They allow the authorities to find the boats and send help.

The transponders also help fishermen avoid accidentally going into waters belonging to other countries.

This system also helps with weather alerts and allows authorities to help fishermen during emergencies like cyclones.

This program makes India’s fishing industry safer and better, similar to other countries like the US, and Australia.
