Improvement in port connectivity
In order to overcome these challenges, many initiatives have been taken over a period of last few years. Some of the recent initiatives taken by the government are as follows:
New legislation viz. Major Ports Authority (MPA) Bill, 2020 have been formulated after extensive deliberations and discussions with the stakeholders. The MPA Bill, 2020 has been passed by the Lok Sabha and would be introduced in Rajya Sabha in the next session. It will usher in a new era for the administration of Major Ports in India in which the Major Ports will have much greater autonomy and contribute significantly to the economic growth and provide world-class port infrastructure by adopting the Landlord Model of development

Singh is one small player in a perfect storm engulfing supply chains across the globe and particularly our region. Ports of Auckland (POAL) unload the equivalent of two-thirds of a Constantinos P container-load every day, but ships are still waiting an average of nine days at sea thanks to port issues around staffing, automation and an influx of goods. The Constantinos P is stretching Northport s facilities to the brink including using up half of the port s available berths and forcing drivers like Singh to spend hours twiddling their thumbs waiting for containers to be offloaded. Port of Tauranga is another alternative, but after more ships skipped the wait in Auckland by docking there the influx of traffic is causing congestion problems.
