This growth highlights JNPA’s position as a critical gateway for India’s containerized trade, reinforcing its role in bolstering economic activity and trade connectivity.

October’s figures reflect the port’s successful operational strategies and continued improvements in infrastructure and efficiency, contributing to enhanced cargo movement.
