<p>The fishing harbours and landing centres are the initial centres of fish handling. Due to poor sanitary and hygienic conditions as well as temperature prevailing at these centres, there is substantial reduction in quality of the fish landed. Provision of clean and sanitary building with ancillary facilities like potable water and ice, fly-proofing arrangements and chilled storage at fishing harbours is an essential requirement to maintain quality and safety requirements for the fish landed. National Fisheries Development Board (NFDB) proposes to provide funding to establish these facilities at incomplete fishing harbours and landing centres. Convergence of the Sagarmala Programme of the Ministry of Shipping for fishing harbours/fish landing centers and any other admissible activities is also being taken up.</p>
<p>Fishing harbours and fish landing centres which are playing a vital role in ensuring safe landing, berthing and allied activities including institutional arrangement for development and management are some thrust areas required to be addressed.</p>
<h3>Components of Assistance</h3>
<p>Under Pradhan Mantri Matsya Sampada Yojana (PMMSY) development of modern fishing harbours and landing centres and modernize/upgrade the existing ones to suit the present and future needs are being taken up. The navigability/efficacy of the existing fishing harbours and landing centres will be improved. 100% central funding will be provided for modernization of fishing harbours owned by central government and its entities.</p>
