This will be the first major port to be built in more than 20 years of time and will be the second major port to be operated as a company, following the Kamarajar Port. The project is being planned on an offshore location, about 4-6kms inside the sea by conducting land reclamation. Material for this purpose is being sourced from sand pits off the coast of Daman.
