    Abstract

    Intending to utilize India's marine wealth sustainably, the ICAR-Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute (CMFRI) has put forth a comprehensive set of policy recommendations, advocating the introduction of central legislation – the Marine Fishery Act. The proposed act aims to regulate fishing activities beyond territorial waters, addressing existing policy and legislative gaps and establishing a framework for sustainable practices. Dr A Gopalakrishnan, Director of CMFRI, presented these proposals during a national workshop organized by NITI Aayog at CMFRI on Friday. “The government has to institutionalise a regular mechanism for the stock assessment of these resources, as resource health status is going to be crucial in WTO subsidy negotiations and other national and international discourse”, Dr Gopalakrishnan said.
