A major milestone in the development of the new DP World terminal at Jawaharlal Nehru Port was achieved with the ceremonial laying of the foundation stone by the Minister of Shipping GK Vasan.
The ceremony at the Nhava Sheva (India) Gateway Terminal site was held in the presence of the Minister of State for Shipping, Milind Deora, and the Chairman DP World, Sultan Ahmed Bin Sulayem along with dignitaries from the Government of India, senior members of JNPT and DP World, and the Indian trade community. Once constructed, the new terminal will add 800,000 TEUs of container capacity to the port, and help ease congestion, as the port is currently operating beyond capacity. DP World is investing $200 million to build the terminal.
