    "articleBody": "Prime Minister Narendra Modi has proposed the establishment of a BRICS distress network aimed at rescuing seafarers in distress across international waters. The initiative seeks to connect maritime authorities and missions of member countries to provide timely assistance during emergencies, Modi said at the BRICS summit.\n\nSeafarers play a crucial role in global trade but often lack adequate support during difficult times. The proposed network would offer assistance with distress alerts, medical aid, information to families, and evacuation operations when necessary. It is envisioned as a structured, multi-layered mechanism featuring regular advisories, additional emergency helplines, and 24x7 control rooms to ensure speed, scale, and last-mile impact.\n\nModi emphasized that humanity’s confidence in global institutions depends on their ability to effectively address such problems. The BRICS distress network aims to enhance cooperation among member countries to safeguard the welfare of seafarers navigating challenging maritime environments.\nयह भी पढ़ें\nPM Modi’s Freight Corridor Could Transform India’s Goods Movement\nPM Modi urges fintech sector to expand beyond payments globally\nPM Modi and President Putin to hold bilateral meeting on September 11\nPM Modi urges teachers to connect beyond textbooks with students",
