Abstract
On being invited to contribute an article for the Souvenir to be issued in connection with the formal opening of the new building at Cochin to house permanently the headquarters of the Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute, my thoughts go back to 1944 when Dr. Baini Prashad, the first Fishery Development Adviser to the Government of India, was initiating steps for the establishment of a fishery research Institute in the country and enquired of me if I could serve as one of the heads of divisions in the proposed institute. In the course of the next two to three years the original concept of a single Institute for fisheries research for the whole country had to undergo change in favour of two, one for marine fisheries and the other for the inland (freshwater and brackishwater) fisheries, apart from one for fisheries technology.
