The secretary appreciated the port’s consistent growth trajectory and its strategic importance in strengthening India’s maritime and logistics ecosystem. A key highlight of the visit was the inauguration and foundation stone laying for multiple infrastructure projects by the port authority, with a combined project outlay of Rs 1.93 billion. These initiatives are expected to enhance port infrastructure and accelerate cargo handling capacity.
