Il existe une force bienveillante qui traverse toute la r\u00e9alit\u00e9. lorsque vous \u00eates align\u00e9 avec cette force, vous avancez avec une puissance \u00e9norme.
\n– Lao Tseu\u00a0<\/div><\/div>\n\t
Il \u00e9tait la force vive derri\u00e8re les conventions et codes maritimes cl\u00e9s qui ont grandement contribu\u00e9 \u00e0 am\u00e9liorer la s\u00e9curit\u00e9 des \u00e9quipages, les normes de formation \u00e9lev\u00e9es et la s\u00e9curit\u00e9 en haute mer, en plus de propager une philosophie d’oc\u00e9ans plus propres et moins pollu\u00e9s. <\/p>\n
Il \u00e9tait en charge lorsque l’OMI a \u00e9labor\u00e9 et valid\u00e9 des conventions historiques, notamment celles sur les normes de formation, de certification et de veille des gens de mer; Recherche et sauvetage maritimes; Suppression d’actes illicites contre la s\u00e9curit\u00e9 de la navigation maritime; et le Protocole pour la r\u00e9pression d’actes illicites contre la s\u00e9curit\u00e9 des plates-formes fixes situ\u00e9es sur le plateau continental.<\/p>\nUne s\u00e9rie d’accidents au d\u00e9but des ann\u00e9es 1970 l’a amen\u00e9 \u00e0 organiser une conf\u00e9rence d\u00e9cisive sur la s\u00e9curit\u00e9 des navires-citernes et la pr\u00e9vention de la pollution, \u00e0 la suite de laquelle des mesures affectant la conception et l’exploitation des navires-citernes ont \u00e9t\u00e9 incorpor\u00e9es dans le Protocole de l’OMI de 1978 relatif \u00e0 la Convention sur la sauvegarde de la vie humaine en mer et la Convention internationale pour la pr\u00e9vention de la pollution par les navires. Apr\u00e8s avoir fait ses armes dans la “Shipping Corporation of India” en tant que Directeur g\u00e9n\u00e9ral fondateur, o\u00f9 il a abord\u00e9 les questions de bien-\u00eatre et de s\u00e9curit\u00e9 des \u00e9quipages, en plus de diversifier l’entreprise naissante en vrac, le Dr Srivastava a su guider naturellement l’OMI pour assumer de plus grandes responsabilit\u00e9s et des r\u00f4les plus importants.
\nSous sa direction, l’agence a gagn\u00e9 en force et en dimension, rejetant son caract\u00e8re \u00e9litiste pour tendre la main aux pays en d\u00e9veloppement, qui en constituent aujourd’hui la majorit\u00e9 des membres. \n
Bj\u00f6rn Kjerfve, pr\u00e9sident en exercice de l’Universit\u00e9 maritime mondiale, d\u00e9crit le Dr Srivastava comme un leader m\u00e9ritoire dot\u00e9 de formidables capacit\u00e9s de persuasion. “Nous sommes tr\u00e8s tristes d’apprendre son d\u00e9c\u00e8s. Je lui ai rendu visite il y a environ deux ans et je l’ai invit\u00e9 au d\u00e9but du mois pour notre c\u00e9r\u00e9monie de remise des dipl\u00f4mes \u00e0 l’occasion du 30e anniversaire de l’universit\u00e9… La fondation n’a jamais \u00e9t\u00e9 facile. Il faut mettre \u00e0 son cr\u00e9dit d’avoir r\u00e9ussi \u00e0 convaincre les membres du conseil de l’OMI et le PNUD d’avoir lev\u00e9 des fonds pour sa mise en place”, a d\u00e9clar\u00e9 au t\u00e9l\u00e9phone M. Kjerfve, pour le journal “The Hindu” depuis Malm\u00f6 en Su\u00e8de.<\/p>\n
P.M. Abraham, ancien secr\u00e9taire de l’Union des transports de surface, se souvient du Dr Srivastava comme un leader charmant avec une vision. “Je l’ai rencontr\u00e9 pour la premi\u00e8re fois lorsque j’ai repr\u00e9sent\u00e9 l’Inde \u00e0 une r\u00e9union du conseil de l’OMI. En tant que Secr\u00e9taire g\u00e9n\u00e9ral, il conduirait les r\u00e9unions de l’organe technique en toute impartialit\u00e9. Je me souviens d’une occasion o\u00f9 un membre s’est lev\u00e9 et a grommel\u00e9 de ne pas avoir re\u00e7u l’ordre du jour de la r\u00e9union. Cela a pris tout le monde par surprise lorsque le Secr\u00e9taire g\u00e9n\u00e9ral est descendu de l’estrade pour s’excuser de la d\u00e9ch\u00e9ance et lui remettre une copie. C’\u00e9tait tellement d\u00e9sarmant.” <\/p>\n
Le Dr Srivastava encourageait un sens de l’humour bienveillant. “Dans de nombreux pays, je suis connu comme le mari de Nirmala, pas comme le secr\u00e9taire g\u00e9n\u00e9ral de l’OMI”, plaisantait-il \u00e0 propos de son \u00e9pouse plus c\u00e9l\u00e8bre. <\/p>\n
Il \u00e9tait un m\u00e9lange rare d’humilit\u00e9, de clairvoyance, de bon jugement et de d\u00e9termination, et le leadership lui \u00e9tait naturel. Il est rare qu’une personne obtienne une telle acceptabilit\u00e9 internationale si rapidement. “On se souviendra de lui pour les conventions maritimes sur les bassins versants r\u00e9dig\u00e9es sous sa direction pour la s\u00e9curit\u00e9 des gens de mer”, a d\u00e9clar\u00e9 K. Mohandas, ancien secr\u00e9taire de l’Union Shipping. Pr\u00e8s de 70 pays lui ont d\u00e9cern\u00e9 leurs plus hautes distinctions. <\/p>\n
Parmi les nombreuses distinctions qui lui ont \u00e9t\u00e9 d\u00e9cern\u00e9es figurait le titre de Chevalier honoraire commandant de l’Ordre le plus distingu\u00e9 de Saint-Michel et Saint-Georges conf\u00e9r\u00e9 par la reine Elizabeth-II.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
