The Union Minister of Earth Sciences, Kiren Rijiju, on June 8, asked people to participate in large numbers for cleaning the beaches. The minister urged this while participating in the beach clean-up drive conducted at Elliot’s beach on the occasion of World Oceans Day (June 8).

The minister said that it was gratifying that various important companies joined the beach clean-up activity.

“India plays a vital role in coastal protection on a global level. Norway, the Arctic and Antarctica are facing various problems like India. Both Norway and India look forward to working together to protect the ocean,” he explained.

The minister also highlighted the positive impact of such beach clean-up activities and urged the fishermen to set a goal to lead a sustainable life for marine life. He said that not only Chennai but all the coastal cities of India should be aware of beach safety. Secretary of the Ministry of Earth Sciences, Mr. Ravichandran and Director of the National Institute of Ocean Technology, Mr. Ramadoss also participated in the event.

Later, Minister Kiren Rejiju also visited the National Institute of Ocean Technology (NIOT) and tweeted, “Thrilled to witness the groundbreaking advancements in ocean electronics including the Matsya 6000 technologies. These innovations hold tremendous potential for underwater exploration and research. 

Delighted to have the opportunity to visit NIOT and witness their exceptional research labs and technologies. Grateful for the team’s relentless pursuit of excellence in ocean science and technology. Together, we will continue to invest in research and development for a sustainable ocean future.”
