Description the establishment of the Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute early in 1947
took place just before the dawn of independence, a most critical period in the history of our
country which brought in its wake the partition, the stress and strains of which affected in
one way or the other the entire Nation. However, the Institute continued to grow inevitably
at a slow pace, mainly for want of adequate suitable technical personnel. Such difSculties in
the early stages of any organisation are only natural even under normal conditions and could
all the more be so in regard to an Institute of this kind as no set up for fisheries research or
education existed then in the country from which experienced personnel could be drawn.
The scientists required to shoulder the responsibilities were recruited mainly from Universities,
Colleges and provincial or state fisheries departments and it necessarily took some time for
many of them to get themselves acquainted and oriented to handle the problems that had to
be tackled.
