Harit Sagar Guidelines 2023 issued

• The Ministry of Ports, Shipping & Waterways (MoPSW) has introduced the ‘Harit Sagar’ Green Port Guidelines 2023 to foster sustainable development in India’s port industry. Launched by Union Minister Shri SarbanandaSonowal, these guidelines aim to revolutionize port development, operation, and maintenance while contributing to fulfilling Prime Minister Modi’s Panchamrit commitments.
• The ‘Harit Sagar’ Guidelines prioritize ecosystem dynamics in all aspects of port development. By aligning with the ‘Working with Nature’ concept, these guidelines minimize the impact on harbor ecosystem components. The goal is to foster sustainable growth while preserving and enhancing the ecological balance within port areas.
• The primary objective of the ‘Harit Sagar’ Guidelines is to minimize waste and attain zero waste discharge from port operations. By following the principles of Reduce, Reuse, Repurpose, and Recycle, ports are encouraged to adopt practices that effectively manage waste and promote resource conservation. These guidelines pave the way for a circular economy approach within port operations, minimizing environmental harm and maximizing resource efficiency.
