According to a source-based information, union shipping ministry may not rush to relax cabotage laws for other ports in the country. This follows the demand from different ports, including JN Port and Vishakhapatnam for similar relaxations. The ministry may first study the impact of relaxation of the laws for international container transhipment terminal (ICTT) at Vallarpadam Kochi before relaxing it in other ports
