Abstract

Beginning with the establishment of specialised fisheries research and other institutes, and the implementation of the development programmes formulated particularly under the National Plans, it progressed through the discovery of the commercial fishing grounds in the inshore waters, modernisation of fishing crafts and gears, improvement of fishing and processing techniques, better transportation and marketing systems. The period also witnessed the birth and growth of a modern fishing industry in the country. Above all these, it has been made possible to create a consciousness across the country, about the potentials of the fisheries, its significant role to supplementing the food requirements of the growing population and its vast scope for future development.
