Meaningful delivery has occurred, but the stated commitment is incomplete.
Status describes delivery. Confidence describes how strong the available evidence is.
Original manifesto wording
“We will create sustainable livelihood opportunities for fishermen through promotion of pearl farming.”
Our Assessment
Pearl farming is included among the alternative and climate-resilient livelihood activities supported under PMMSY (alongside sea-cage farming, seaweed cultivation and ornamental fish farming), as confirmed in a government reply in Parliament (March 2026). However, a dedicated, at-scale pearl-farming promotion programme with measurable uptake is only thinly evidenced. Partial, low confidence.
