With East Coast Road on place, the govenrment wanted to use it to tap marine wealth and help fishermen, for which the cooperation from fisheries, animal husbandry and pwd departments and also forest department, would be sought and taken, he said.

On development at university front, Ramasamy said 11 new centres of excellence would be set up in all 10 constituent colleges of TNAU where two-year training for students, who graduated from the university, can be given. This would make them eligible to be appointed as associated professors.
