As the nation focuses on bolstering its infrastructure and connectivity, the role of land ports is expected to become even more pronounced in the coming years. This positive trajectory in land port trade is indicative of a robust and interconnected economic ecosystem, setting the stage for continued growth and development in India's trade landscape.
