	In 1981; the Government of India created a Department of Ocean development (DoD) as a part of Cabinet Secretariat, which was kept directly under the charge of [[Prime Minister of India]]. In 1982 it became a separate department and it started carrying out its activities in the field of ocean development. In 2006; it was made a separate Ministry called Ministry of Ocean development. In July 2006 itself the Ministry was again reorganised and the new Ministry of Earth Sciences came into being with various institutions under its ambit. The Government via a resolution in 2006 brought [[ India Meteorological Department\|Indian Metrological Department]], [[Indian Institute of Tropical Meteorology]] and National centre for medium range weather forecasting and research (NCMRWF) into its administrative control.
