Q. Which among the following ports of India is also known as “child of partition”?

Answer: Kandla
Notes: The correct answer is Kandla. Kandla Port, located in Gujarat, was developed after the partition of India in 1947 to provide a major port for the western region, as the existing ports were in Pakistan. It was the first port in India to be developed as a "decongested" port, and it plays a crucial role in handling cargo for the northern and western states. The term "child of partition" reflects its establishment in response to the geopolitical changes following the partition.
