The Indian Coast Guard (ICG) marked its 47th Raising Day on Wednesday, February 1st, 2023 with a ceremony attended by dignitaries from the center, state, and armed forces, including Gujarat Governor Acharya Devvrat. The ICG, which now has 150 ships and 70 aircraft, was established in 1978 with just seven ships.

The efforts made by the ICG were praised by Governor Devvrat, who cited their success in apprehending 236 kg of drugs worth Rs 1,380 crore, seven foreign vessels, and 38 foreign nationals, as well as saving 69 lives at sea in 2022 off the Gujarat coast.
