Port Blair, Jan 18: The Member of Parliament, Shri. Kuldeep Rai Sharma called on the Hon’ble Lt. Governor of Andaman & Nicobar Islands yesterday and took up some important issues of these Islands.

Among other crucial issues, he requested the Hon’ble Lt. Governor to take up this matter of shortage of ship for Southern Group of Islands with the Ministry of Shipping to give preference to Andaman Ships for Annual Survey in Mainland Dockyards so that the turnaround timing of the ship after Annual Survey is reduced to minimum and round the year at least 50% of the ships are available for Hut Bay and Nicobar District as shipping is the lifeline of Andaman & Nicobar Islands.

The world is reeling under the effects of climate change. Most of the wild vegetation has already been replaced by concrete jungles. No matter how high our apartments are and how pretty the view from up there is, our primitive instinct always calls us towards nature. Plants give solace, flowers bring us hope, wind rustling through the leaves is our song and when after a long hustle at work if your brain can have that meditative pause, a steaming cup of coffee amidst the green of Mother Nature, every bustle feels worth it. This is where our projects come into play. This is what we look forward to providing you- The pause, the solace and the smile. We aim to help you to do your bit for mother nature and in return get those moments of peaceful stillness and a break from the 21st-century rat race. It is with this thought that we at Andaman Chronicle have come up with a project named ‘BAGEECHA’.
