New aquarium deserves better care than the old one got

After much debate, Marine Drive's iconic Taraporevala Aquarium will be thrown open to the public in August or in the second week of September

New aquarium deserves better care than the old one got

We hope that the new aquarium is better maintained than its predecessor. Taraporevala Aquarium was in dire need of a revamp. Like the city’s Byculla zoo, a relook and a general upgradation was necessary to bring it in line with other world-class aquariums across the globe.


There is huge interest in marine life. A couple of exhibitions that were held at city colleges saw long queues of eager people who wanted to see exotic marine life. The aquarium is Mumbai’s iconic building, at a stunning location and deserves to be better looked after with high standards of maintenance. And the onus of this mission lies on us too. We must display better civic sense while visiting such educational centres. Obedient queues and better organisation will ensure a more pleasurable viewing experience for the visitor and speak of respect towards the city and its tourist spots.
