Union Minister Sarbananda Sonowal launches port projects worth Rs 235 crore in Tamil Nadu under “Viksit Bharat, Viksit Ports”

Union Minister for Ports, Shipping and Waterways Sarbananda Sonowal launched port infrastructure and digital governance projects worth about Rs 235 crore at Chennai Port Authority and Kamarajar Port Limited in Tamil Nadu.[1] The projects aim to enhance cargo handling, operational efficiency, and logistics competitiveness on the eastern coast.[1] As part of the initiative, an e-Port Clearance Portal was launched under the One Nation–One Port Process (ONOP) to enable fully online submission and issuance of port clearances.[1] This is expected to reduce turnaround time for vessels and improve transparency in port operations.[1] Sonowal also handed over a cheque of Rs 18 lakh to the Royal Madras Yacht Club to support sailing training for 20 students from Chennai Port School.[1] The launches are positioned under the broader “Viksit Bharat, Viksit Ports” vision of upgrading maritime infrastructure to support India’s trade growth.[1]
