Answer: Saurashtra Kutch harbour port
Notes: Under the ambitious Sagarmala project, six new mega ports have been cleared to be built by the Ministry of Shipping. The Greenfield ports are likely to come up at Sagar in West Bengal, Paradip Outer Harbour in Odisha, Enayam in Tamil Nadu and Wadhwan in Maharashtra. Also a special purpose vehicle, named Bhor Sagar Port Limited, has also been floated under the partnership of the Kolkata Port Trust and the West Bengal Government. Another new port, to be developed either in Machilipatnam or Vodarevu, in Andhra Pradesh has also been proposed. These new ports are likely to increase India’s cargo handling capacity by 466 million tonne per year and hence improve the logistics support in India and act as a channel to enhance the Make in India initiative by the government.
