Amid rough weather and cyclonic winds, ICG ship Anmol rescued the fishermen 12 nautical miles from India's international maritime boundary with Bangladesh in an operation which continued for the last two days, reports UNB.

The search for two missing Bangladeshi fishermen is in progress with ships and aircraft, the ICG tweeted.
