Two more Indian beaches — Kovalam in Kerala and Eden in Puducherry — have got the international ‘Blue Flag’ certification, an eco-level tag given to well-managed and clean beaches as per globally recognised standards. India now has 10 such beaches.
The ‘Blue Flag’ tag is one of the world’s most recognised awards for clean, safe and environment-friendly beaches, and marinas. The other eight Indian beaches, which had got this tag last year, are Shivrajpur (Dwarka, Gujarat), Ghoghla (Diu), Kasarkod and Padubidri (Karnataka), Kappad (Kerala), Rushikonda (Andhra Pradesh), Golden Beach (Puri, Odisha) and Radhanagar (Andaman & Nicobar Islands). Announcing certification for two new beaches on twitter, Environment Minister Bhupender Yadav said it was another milestone in the country’s journey towards a clean and green India, led by PM Narendra Modi.
