  • Jawaharlal Nehru Port Trust (JNPT): a Leading Container Port in India
    European Journal of Business and Management www.iiste.org ISSN 2222-1905 (Paper) ISSN 2222-2839 (Online) Vol.9, No.3, 2017 Jawaharlal Nehru Port Trust (JNPT): A Leading Container Port in India Prof. Avinash Purandare Associate Professor National Institute of Construction Management and Research (NICMAR), 25/1, Balewadi, Pune-411045, India Dr. Shailesh P. Kasande Director, Vishwakarma Institute of Management, S.No. 3/4, Kondhwa, Pune-411048, India Abstract Container ports are complex organizations hosting multiple simultaneous activities, e.g. tugging, pilotage, mending, etc., but container handling is the principal function of a container port, with handling constituting over 80% of the charges faced by a carrier bringing a container vessel to a port for loading and unloading (Tovar, Trujillo and Jara-Diaz, 2004). Because of various activities that take place in a container port, agents involved in container ports are diverse: port authorities, terminal operators, tug boats, freight forwarders, consigners and consignees etc. Container transport within the port can be handled by a port authority, a terminal operator or inland logistics companies. For instance, a port authority’s objective could be to create and maintain the labour capacity, whereas the terminal operator’s objective could be to maximize the profit, and the inland logistics company’s objective could be to improve service reliability. Physically, a container port consists of one or more container terminals. In order to transport containers from ship to shore and within the port, the required facilities include berths for ships to park, area for container stacking and storage, and handling equipment to upload and unload containers.

  • Study of Housing Typologies in Mumbai
    HOUSING TYPOLOGIES IN MUMBAI CRIT May 2007 HOUSING TYPOLOGIES IN MUMBAI CRIT May 2007 1 Research Team Prasad Shetty Rupali Gupte Ritesh Patil Aparna Parikh Neha Sabnis Benita Menezes CRIT would like to thank the Urban Age Programme, London School of Economics for providing financial support for this project. CRIT would also like to thank Yogita Lokhande, Chitra Venkatramani and Ubaid Ansari for their contributions in this project. Front Cover: Street in Fanaswadi, Inner City Area of Mumbai 2 Study of House Types in Mumbai As any other urban area with a dense history, Mumbai has several kinds of house types developed over various stages of its history. However, unlike in the case of many other cities all over the world, each one of its residences is invariably occupied by the city dwellers of this metropolis. Nothing is wasted or abandoned as old, unfitting, or dilapidated in this colossal economy. The housing condition of today’s Mumbai can be discussed through its various kinds of housing types, which form a bulk of the city’s lived spaces This study is intended towards making a compilation of house types in (and wherever relevant; around) Mumbai. House Type here means a generic representative form that helps in conceptualising all the houses that such a form represents. It is not a specific design executed by any important architect, which would be a-typical or unique. It is a form that is generated in a specific cultural epoch/condition. This generic ‘type’ can further have several variations and could be interestingly designed /interpreted / transformed by architects.

One aspect of this obscurity is the dramatic neglect of egregious child protection issues pervasive in urban India. As rural to urban migration accelerates, so does the concentration of extreme poverty and child vulnerability within cities. Over half the children living amongst the urban poor are stunted, over one third do not attend school and chronic exposure to violence, crime, and sexual and labor exploitation are endemic.

  • Jawaharlal Nehru Port
    Central Water and Power Research Station, Pune JAWAHARLAL NEHRU PORT, MAHARASHTRA Background The Jawaharlal Nehru Port (JNP), a natural major port of India, is situated in Thane creek on the west coast of Maharashtra. The development of JNP was proposed as the port of Mumbai got congested due to significant increase in vessel traffic by mid 1970s. The location for port in front of Elephanta Island near Nhava-Sheva creek in Thane creek was identified such that the natural deeper depths in channel are available with minimum expenditure on capital dredging and no construction of breakwater was required for wave tranquility. The port facilities are being developed in stages to cater to the increasing demand of container traffic and presently it is the premier container port of India handling about 4.8 Million TEUs containers/annum. The depth of 14 m below CD is maintained by port as Phase-I deepening in main channel to allow smooth entry of 5th generation container carriers with the aid of tidal window. The Phase-II deepening of channel up to -16m is in progress. JNP has recently completed development of 2 km long mega container terminal known as Fourth Container Terminal (FCT) to increase its container handling capacity up to 10 Million TEUs. Overall View of Jawaharlal Nehru Port Studies Conducted The well calibrated physical tidal model of the Mumbai Port constructed to a scale of 1:400 (H) and 1:80 (V) at CWPRS in association with mathematical model (Telemac software) are in use to study the various developments under consideration. More than 50 model studies including field investigations were carried out by CWPRS for JNP since its inception.

  • Case Study of Jawaharlal Nehru Port Trust (JNPT) Mumbai
    Background paper prepared for the World Development Report 2005 Public Disclosure Authorized MANAGING PORT REFORMS IN INDIA: Case Study of Jawaharlal Nehru Port Trust (JNPT) Mumbai By Amit S Ray Professor of Economics School of International Studies Jawaharlal Nehru University Public Disclosure Authorized New Delhi 110067 India Email: [email protected], [email protected] (February 15, 2004) Abstract JNPT was established with the goal of creating a world-class port in India. Indeed, it clearly enjoyed an edge over other Indian ports with respect to both infrastructure and performance even in the pre-reforms period. However, it suffered from some of the inherent drawbacks ailing the Indian port sector that prevented it from achieving world standards in port efficiency. As the most modern among Indian ports, and also Public Disclosure Authorized the one with the least labor problems, JNPT was the natural choice as a test case in privatization of port operations. This paper discusses the key reforms at JNPT, their formulation and implementation. It is clear that the reform process was well designed and optimally sequenced with active participation of a wide range of actors. The nitty- gritty of the reform process at JNPT was not imposed top-down. The reform has been a reasonable success. With the creation of a new private terminal and the follow-up measures undertaken thereafter, JNPT has demonstrated its capability to enhance efficiency of the public terminal through the introduction of intra-port competition and it has succeeded in earning the distinction of being the world’s 29th largest container port.
