Abstract

The overarching goal of the National Policy on Marine Fisheries, 2017 (NPMF, 2017) is to ensure the health and ecological integrity of the marine living resources of India’s Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) through sustainable harvests for the benefit of present and future generations of the nation. The overall strategy of the NPMF, 2017 is based on seven pillars, namely sustainable development, socio-economic upliftment of fishers, principle of subsidiarity, partnership, inter-generational equity, gender justice and precautionary approach. These seven pillars will guide the actions of various stakeholders in meeting the vision and mission set for the marine fisheries sector of the country. While fishers will be at the core of this Policy, actions will also be guided by the ‘Public Trust Doctrine’.
