Abstract

Aimed at preparing the National Marine Fisheries Index (NMFI), NITI Aayog has requested the Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute (CMFRI) to initiate a slew of programmes for the development of marine fisheries in the country.The NMFI is intended to derive a comparative picture of marine fisheries development across the maritime states and islands. The demand in this regard was made by N Manash Choudhury, deputy adviser (Fisheries), NITI Aayog, during an interaction with CMFRI director A Gopalakrishnan and scientists of the Institute. Choudhury also asked CMFRI to formulate a National Marine Fisheries Action Plan covering all maritime states and islands in line with the „Sagarmala‟, a programme introduced by the Centre to boost the blue economic growth with the focus on improvement in coastal logistics and skill development.
