The move is poised to generate employment opportunities, stimulate economic growth, and position India as a formidable player in the global maritime landscape.

The ambitious plan to increase domestically flagged ships showcases a forward-thinking strategy that aims to leverage India's maritime potential fully. The envisioned expansion is not only a strategic economic move but also reinforces the nation's commitment to becoming a key player in the global maritime domain.
