The
government had finalized the detailed project report for the International
Transhipment port at Great Nicobar Island worth around 41,000 Crore and they
are planning to move forward with it within the next few months. This project
had faced a significant inspection due to environmental concerns. These investments
are from both government and public private partnership. The port in the
Andaman and Nicobar Islands will have the ultimate capacity to handle 16
million containers per year.
