Background

In May 2025, the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change granted clearance for a revised captive-port plan. It reduced planned cargo-handling capacity from 15 million to 5 million tonnes per annum and provided for completion of a 165-metre coal berth and associated trestle, using offshore lighterage rather than the previously envisaged deep-water configuration.[2]
