In order to reverse the decline in cargo traffic at Kolkata Port, the authority planned to invest Rs 15,000 crore on various development projects till the end of the 12th Five Year Plan (2016-17). Cargo handling at the port declined to 43.245 million tonne (mn t) in 2011-12 compared to 47.545 mn t in the previous fiscal. The decline is attributed mainly to a fall in liquid bulk as also in crude oil movement.
