The Union Minister of Ports, Shipping & Waterways Sarbananda Sonowal visited the project sites at Bogibeel to review the progress of jetties. The Minister directed the authorities to ensure quality in the construction of the projects, which are likely to fasten the cargo movement via Brahmaputra onto the global trade ways.
The jetties at Bogibeel and Guijan are being constructed with a view to provide an efficient mode of transportation for the trade interests of the region. I believe that the Marine Jetty at Bogibeel will be inaugurated this new year, unlocking huge possibilities for the people of this region, Sonowal said.
