The Navy today continued its search
for two officers, who have been missing after submarine INS Sindhuratna had a mishap off the Mumbai coast yesterday.

The process is also on to bring the ill-fated submarine to the Mumbai dock. A Navy source said today that it is taking a bit longer time in towing the submarine because of its restrictive movement.

INS Sindhuratna was at sea off Mumbai for routine training in the early hours of yesterday when smoke was reported in the sailors' accommodationby the submarine.
