Kolkata Port Trust drishtiias.com/printpdf/kolkata-port-trust On the occasion of 150th anniversary celebration of Kolkata Port Trust, it has been renamed after Dr. Shyama Prasad Mukherjee. The Port has two distinct dock systems - Kolkata Docks at Kolkata and a deep water dock at Haldia Dock Complex, Haldia. History of Kolkata Port Trust It is the oldest operating port in India, and was constructed by the British East India Company. The Port which was once considered the most important port in the country still remains the premier port which has been rightly called the gateway to Eastern India. It is the guiding factor to trade and commerce of vast hinterland comprising the entire Eastern India including Bihar and Eastern Uttar Pradesh and the two land-locked Himalayan Kingdoms of Nepal and Bhutan. After independence, the port's importance decreased because of factors including the Partition of India (1947), reduction in size of the port hinterland, and economic stagnation in eastern India. Governance: It is an autonomous body under the ministry of shipping, Government of India administered through Major Port Trusts Act, 1963. Location: Kolkata Port is the only riverine Major Port in India, situated 232 kms up-stream from the Sandheads. Its navigational channel is one of the longest in the world. Major Ports India has 13 major ports viz. Kolkata Port, Paradip Port, New Mangalore Port, Cochin Port, Jawaharlal Nehru Port, Mumbai Port, Kandla Port, Visakhapatnam Port, Chennai Port, Tuticorin port, Ennore Port, Mormugao Port and Port Blair Port.

Development of Sea Port at Tadadi, Karnataka
DEVELOPMENT OF SEA PORT AT TADADI, KARNATAKA Karnataka, India - A Profile Karnataka, a State in the south of India, has been a pioneer state in industry with a distinction of a strong and vibrant industrial base. Karnataka is targeting an industrial growth rate of 12% per annum, with an increased emphasis on the expansion and growth of infrastructure sectors through private sector participation. Since ports are the trade gateways for a state, their ability to meet the increasing demands of a rapidly growing economy is crucial for addressing the rising import and export traffic. Currently there is one major port and two non-major ports that are operational in Karnataka. The major port at Mangalore, namely, New Mangalore Port Trust, currently caters to the cargo requirements of the southern districts of the state. Need for a Port on the West Coast Belekeri Tadadi The northern districts of the state, especially the Bellary–Hospet region produce large quantities of iron ore. The export potential of iron ore from this region is estimated at 30 million tones in 2010. Part of this iron ore is exported through the two non-major ports namely Karwar and Belekeri. However, bigger vessels cannot operate at these ports as the draft available is less. Further the capacity at these ports is also not adequate to cater to the iron ore export demand of this region. Thus, a port developed in the northern coastline of the state would cater to the districts of North Karnataka especially the iron-ore belt in Bellary - Hospet, thereby significantly improving the industrial advantage of the region.

NEW MANGALORE PORT TRUST Press Note 29.12.2020 NMPT WELCOMES PROJECT LAUNCHES & ANNOUNCEMENTS by UNION ROAD TRANSPORT and HI
NEW MANGALORE PORT TRUST Press Note 29.12.2020 NMPT WELCOMES PROJECT LAUNCHES & ANNOUNCEMENTS BY UNION ROAD TRANSPORT AND HIGHWAYS MINISTER, SHRI NITIN GADKARI On December 19, 2020, Shri Nitin Gadkari, Union Minister for Road Transport & Highways and Union Minister for Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises, inaugurated 33 National Highway projects across road length of 1200 km and value of Rs 11,000 crore in Karnataka via video conferencing. The Chairman, NMPT along with President, CII welcomed the project launches and thanked the Union Minister, the Karnataka Government, the Dakshina Kannada MP and State BJP President for the same, as well as for the positive development on construction of a tunnel to improve connectivity between Mangaluru and Bengaluru. The Chairman appreciated the Rs 3443 crore project for 4-laning of the 278 km coastal road from Goa Border to Kerala Border connecting the port cities of Belekeri, Karwar and Mangaluru, saying that it would ensure smooth flow of cargo to and from the ports. He said that the project for construction of six-lane bridge at Kulur at a cost of Rs 69 crore would bring respite to the public and the industries around this area, alike, as the stretch from KIOCL to Surathkal is facing serious congestions throughout the day. The next step would be to construct a flyover between KIOCL junction to Baikampady junction to separate the industrial vehicle traffic from the non-industrial vehicle traffic, thus improving the average speed of traffic and also mitigating the risk of accidents. Chairman, NMPT said that the biggest bottleneck for the port and the industries in the hinterland is negotiating the Ghat sections, transportation through which is very slow and prone to risk.
