IIE Digital Desk : Pakistan is in mourning after a boat carrying hundreds of people capsized off the coast of Karachi on Wednesday. The boat was carrying people from the country's southern province of Sindh to the capital, Islamabad, for a religious pilgrimage. The boat is believed to have capsized in rough seas. Rescue teams have recovered dozens of bodies, but hundreds are still missing. The death toll is expected to rise.

The tragedy has highlighted the need for better safety measures at sea and for more assistance to the poor. It is also a reminder of the importance of religious tolerance in Pakistan. The victims of the tragedy were from different religious groups, but they were united in their grief.
The boat tragedy is a sad day for Pakistan. It is a reminder of the dangers of sea travel, the plight of the poor, and the importance of religious tolerance. The country will need to come together to mourn the victims and to prevent similar tragedies from happening in the future.
