CMFRI to carry out marine fishing village validation
The Mangalore Regional Centre of ICAR-CMFRI will carry out the process for the coastal districts of Karnataka.
This census is undertaken under the Pradhan Mantri Matsya Sampada Yojana (PMMSY), with CMFRI serving as the nodal agency for implementation across India. The exercise aims to establish an accurate and updated frame of marine fishing villages across India's coastline and island territories, laying the foundation for household-level enumeration scheduled later in the year.
Over the next two weeks, 108 officials from CMFRI and the Fishery Survey of India (FSI) will visit every marine fishing village to verify its status, delineate boundaries, and compile an updated village frame.
This exercise will be conducted using VyASNAV (Village-Jetty Appraisal Navigator), a custom-built mobile application developed by CMFRI to enable real-time, geo-referenced data collection. This foundational activity precedes the comprehensive household enumeration scheduled for Nov–Dec 2025, which will cover approximately 1.2 million fisher households across 3,500 villages in 13 coastal states and UTs.

"An accurate and updated frame of marine fishing villages is essential to ensure the success of the household-level enumeration," said Neetu Kumari Prasad, joint secretary, department of fisheries. In collaboration with state fisheries departments and local administrative bodies, census teams will assess each village's dependence on marine fishing and allied activities, estimate the number of marine fisher households, and geotag village boundaries.
The data will feed into a GIS-enabled MFC dashboard, supported by a robust online backup system and a two-tier supervision framework at district and state levels to ensure data integrity. "The census will generate granular data on socio-economic conditions, livelihood dependencies, and infrastructure gaps, enabling the govt to design targeted interventions for sustainable development of marine fishing communities," added Neetu Kumari Prasad.
Grinson George, director of CMFRI, noted that the teams will also identify and shortlist local community members to be trained as enumerators for the household phase.

5 Challenging traits of Gemini zodiac sign
I explore the internal struggle of Gemini, depicting indecision and restlessness through symbolic everyday objects. Gemini is the third sign of the zodiac, known for being adaptable, smart, and social. People born under Gemini are often curious and quick thinkers. However, like all zodiac signs, Gemini has some negative traits that can be challenging. Here are five negative aspects commonly linked to Gemini. Gemini people often change their minds and interests quickly. They can be excited about something one moment and then lose interest the next. This inconsistency can make them seem unreliable and unpredictable. In relationships and at work, this can frustrate others who find it hard to keep up with Gemini's ever-changing moods and plans. Gemini's curiosity often leads them to learn a little about many things without diving deep into any one topic. This superficial approach can make them seem shallow or uncommitted. In conversations, they might appear more interested in gossip and trivial matters rather than meaningful discussions, which can affect the depth of their relationships. Gemini individuals can see both sides of a situation, which makes it hard for them to make decisions. They often overthink and second-guess themselves, leading to indecisiveness. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Live Comfortably: 60m2 prefabricated bungalow for the elderly in Rejoagung Pre Fabricated Homes | Search Ads Search Now Undo This can be a problem in both personal and professional settings, where timely and confident decision-making is important.
