Majority of unused land with Major Ports to be used for industrialisation : Mansukh Mandaviya NEW DELHI: To propel port-led development, the Government will ensure industries are set up on a chunk of the 1.10 lakh hectares of land available with India's 12 Major Ports, Union Minister Mansukh Mandaviya said. Apart from this, plans are afoot to boost cargo handling, he said. "Major ports have among them about 1,10,000 hectare land. A chunk of this will be used for developing industries and industrialisation for port-led development in the country. We are in the process of identifying port-led industries,"
Minister of State for Shipping Mandaviya said recently. India has 12 Major Ports -- Deendayal, Mumbai, JNPT, Mormugao, New Mangalore, Cochin, Chennai, Kamarajar (Ennore), VO Chidambaranar, Visakhapatnam, Paradip and Kolkata (including Haldia) -- that handle about 61 per cent of the country's total cargo traffic.
