National Coastal Mission (NCM 2.0)
No question on this topic yet. The note is still here to read.
India's integrated coastal zone management programme under the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change (MoEFCC), NCM 2.0 operates through the Coastal Regulation Zone (CRZ) Notification 2019, mangrove conservation, shoreline change mapping, and Integrated Coastal Zone Management (ICZM) projects funded with World Bank support. It is the primary statutory-cum-programmatic instrument balancing coastal development with ecosystem protection. Key knowledge areas include CRZ classifications, Hazard Line demarcation, and ICZM principles.
