Abstract
Coastal habitat like mangroves, seagrass, coral reefs, and estuaries are intricately linked to fisheries, and their conservation is essential for maintaining the health of our oceans and the livelihoods of communities that depend on them. They support small-scale, commercial and recreational fisheries in India and are a vital source of income for millions of people. They provide humans with multiple benefits, a stable climate, air, water, food and materials in addition to protection from disaster and disease. Mangrove species contain a wide variety of chemical compounds that could be used as drugs for many epidemic diseases (Behbahani et al., 2018).
