This ambitious endeavour aligns with Assam's commitment to creating a conducive environment for trade and commerce. The cargo terminals, once operational, are anticipated to attract increased investment, spurring economic activities in the region. The project's strategic location and forward-looking design underscore its potential as a game-changer for Assam's economic landscape.

As the foundation-laying date approaches, anticipation is building among various sectors. The cargo terminals are expected to not only boost trade within Assam but also position the state as a key player in the larger national and international trade networks.
