Citing how the count
of active Indian seafarers grew from 117,090 in 2014 to nearly 300,000 at
present, Shringla highlighted the immense potential that India possesses in the
maritime domain.
Shringla was addressing the ninth
convocation of the government-run Indian Maritime University (IMU) at its
Headquarters in Chennai as the chief guest. The IMU is dedicated to providing education and training in various
areas of maritime studies, including navigation, marine engineering, maritime
law, and marine management.
The event marked the successful graduation of 1,974
students, which included four doctoral scholars (PhD) and one MS (by
research) scholar. The convocation was presided over by Dr Malini V
Shankar, IAS (Retd.), vice chancellor of IMU, who conferred degrees to the graduates
and delivered the presidential address.
According to data
from the Directorate General of Shipping, GOI, India is the third-largest
provider of seafarers worldwide, following China and the Philippines. Indian
seafarers constitute nearly 10 per cent of the global maritime workforce,
Shringla stated.
