During the BRICS Summit, India proposed a seafarer network aimed at tracking and supporting Indian crew members overseas. The initiative is being developed under the direction of the Ministry of Ports, Shipping and Waterways (MoPSW) and the Directorate General of Maritime Administration (DGMA). This network is intended to be a round-the-clock emergency support system, rather than merely a tracking database.

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The system, which builds on the existing eNavik seafarer-tracking system, would allow authorities to identify the location, vessel, and agency responsible for Indian seafarers globally. This is significant given that India contributes 311,936 maritime professionals, including 140,718 officers, to the global maritime workforce.
