India Ports Global Ltd (IPGL), a state-owned entity, is set to finalize an agreement with the Iranian Port Authority to commence full-fledged operations at Chabahar Port in Iran. The port, developed collaboratively by India, Iran, and Afghanistan, aims to enhance connectivity and trade in the region. Meanwhile, concerns persist over the Sittwe Port in Myanmar, built with Indian assistance, as geopolitical tensions in the area raise uncertainties about cargo movement amidst the conflict between Myanmar's military and anti-junta groups. Infrastructure work continues, but operational decisions await a conducive geopolitical environment.
