Government to develop catchment area around Vizhinjam Port

The government plans to establish a catchment area and assembly cluster around Vizhinjam Port, as announced by Industries Minister P. Rajeeve. He stated that the catchment area will serve as a hub for industrial activities beyond district and state borders. The initiative will include the establishment of assembling units to import components, assemble them, and export the final products.

Additionally, the government is considering the creation of logistics parks every 20 kilometers to enhance the port's capabilities, aligning with the state’s newly released logistics policy. One such park by Kinfra is currently under consideration.

Harikishore, Vizhinjam Port MD Divya S. Iyer, Adani Ports CEO Pranav Choudhary, and Adani Vizhinjam Port CEO Pradeep Jayaraman. (TOI)
