Under the concessionaire agreement, AISATS will undertake the design, construction, financing, and operation of this cargo hub, which is set to occupy 87 acres of land. The primary objective is to provide efficient and seamless intermodal connectivity for cargo transportation to and from manufacturing hubs across India.
