The CISF Vande Mataram Coastal Cyclothon2026, a flagship national public outreach and awareness initiative, was virtually flagged off from Major Dhyan Chand National Stadium, here on Wednesday. The event was inaugurated by the Honble Minister of State for Home Affairs, Shri Nityanand Rai, who graced the occasion as the Chief Guest. With the flag-off, the 25-day mega national movement formally commenced, as two CISF cycling teams simultaneously set out from Bakkhali (West Bengal) and Lakhpat (Gujarat). The teams will collectively traverse approximately 6,500 kilometres along Indias eastern and western coastlines, covering nine coastal States and two Union Territories, before culminating at Kochi on 22 February 2026. I wish good luck to the whole CISF team. I hope the CISF marathon is going to be a lot of fun and full of enthusiasm. Please participate. All the best, Raina said in a video shared by CISF on its X handle, drawing a powerful connection between sporting excellence and national service, he applauded CISF personnel for their relentless efforts in spreading awareness about the critical importance of Indias maritime security. Such inspiring words from an iconic sportsperson further strengthen CISFs resolve to drive impactful initiatives in the supreme interest of the nation, CISF posted on X. During the journey, the Cyclothon will halt at 52 coastal villages, which will be adopted by CISF for sustained, year-long engagement. In coordination with key stakeholders such as ONGC, Port Authorities and other maritime agencies, local CISF units will undertake community welfare and infrastructure development activities, supported through Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiatives.
