India’s delegation, led by Shri T.K. Ramachandran, Secretary of the Ministry of Ports, Shipping and Waterways, is participating in the 134th session of the International Maritime Organization (IMO) Council in London. The focus of this session is on enhancing maritime safety and promoting gender inclusivity within the maritime sector.

The Indian representatives are advocating for measures that emphasize the importance of safety protocols and gender equality in maritime operations. This initiative aligns with global efforts to create a more inclusive environment in maritime industries, addressing the underrepresentation of women in this field.

The discussions at the IMO Council are crucial for shaping international maritime policies that prioritize safety and inclusivity. India’s active participation underscores its commitment to these essential issues, setting a precedent for other nations to follow.

As the session progresses, the Indian delegation aims to influence key decisions that will enhance maritime safety standards and foster gender inclusivity, ultimately contributing to a safer and more equitable maritime sector worldwide.
