The most beautiful Shivrajpur beach will disappear!, Erosion of 32692 square meters, 2396 square meters of mud | Gujarat’s coastline in the country under threat, Shivrajpur beach on the verge of disappearing

The Congress had accused the government about the government’s reply in the Rajya Sabha. In which the Congress said that the beautiful beaches of the beautiful coast of Gujarat are in danger, the beautiful Shivrajpur beach of Gujarat will remain nameless or disappear for the next generation. Because, 32692 square meters have been eroded while 2396 square meters have been silted up. The state of Gujarat has the longest coastline in the country at 1945.6 km, with the highest erosion in the country at 537.5 km, the government admits.

The sea coast of Gujarat is in the most danger
Gujarat’s blue flag Shivrajpur beach has been included in the beach that disappeared in response to a question from the Rajya Sabha. Apart from this, it has been alleged that beaches like Mandvi, Tithal, Dandi, Ubhrat, Suvli, Dabhri are on the verge of disappearing. According to the Central Government’s Ministry of Earth Sciences, the coastline of Gujarat state, which has the highest coastline in the entire country, is under threat.

Only Gujarat was not allotted a site
Three sites have been identified by the Central Government in Kerala, Pondicherry and Tamil Nadu for prevention of erosion and silt, silt and waste filling. However, not a single site has been selected under the Central Sector Plan scheme in Gujarat, which has the country’s largest coastline and is the most eroded. Such allegations have been made by the Congress spokesperson.

In the Rajya Sabha’s reply, there was a shocking revelation
Congress spokesperson Parthivarajsinh Kathawadia said that there has been a shocking revelation in a reply of Rajya Sabha on 6 April 2023. The well-known beaches of Gujarat state are on the verge of disappearing or becoming extinct in the near future. Shivrajpur Beach is advertised in different media in the name of Blue Flag Beach. The coastline of this beach is under threat. An area of 32692.74 square meters of Shivrajpur beach is under erosion and an area of 2396.77 square meters is being filled with silt and garbage.

Over 60% of the country’s coastline is under threat
The entire report of the central government shows that Gujarat and the central government are failing to protect the coastal environment. More than 60 percent of the country’s 6632 km coastline is environmentally threatened. Across the country, 33.6% of coastlines are under erosion and 26.9% of coastlines are being damaged by silt, silt and garbage.

Major damage to coastal habitats
Coastal environment is not only harming the marine environment and organisms. Apart from this, the people living in the coastal areas will create a great impact on the lives of the fishermen and the people living in the coastal areas. The sea level will rise and in the era of climate change, the environment will also affect human life.
