Capt JS Gill, former
Deputy Director General of Shipping, Government of India, was the chief guest
of the occasion and Tina Ahluwalia, India Head of BLU Maritime Consultancy, a
Singapore-based Maritime company, was the guest of honour.
Capt Tejinder Singh
Bhatia, President of MNOA Chandigarh, said, “We have been publishing this
directory almost every two years. Last time, in 2021, it could not be printed
due to the pandemic. So it became more important for all of us to take out this
edition at the first possible opportunity, mainly because few new members had
joined the association in the meantime and the personal details of all the
members needed to be updated regularly.”
"The
directory will serve as a ready reckoner for those finding
contact details of someone in the merchant navy fraternity in 'City Beautiful'.
The advantage of the directory is also that all contacts of
merchant navy officers' from Chandigarh have been put at one single
place," Bhatia added.
Notably, there are
details of close to 800 members in the directory. The directory contains the
member's name, current rank, location and contact details. It also has
the name of the member's spouse and the couple's wedding
anniversary date. Prince Goyal, Director of Equation Developers – a
corporation that supported the event, was also present on the occasion. BlogsWire
