Chandigarh: Merchant Navy Officers' Association (MNOA) Chandigarh has released the 9th edition of its Members’ Directory at a get- together held at Defence Services Officers Institute (DSOI) here. Around 150 members and their families attended the programme.

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
