India's Infrastructure Leap
-
The inauguration of India's largest cruise terminal, the Mumbai International Cruise Terminal (MICT), marks a significant milestone in the country's journey toward becoming a global tourism and logistics hub.
Developed at a cost of Rs 5,700 crore and equipped with world-class amenities, the MICT is poised to transform Mumbai into a premier cruise destination, aligning with Prime Minister Narendra Modi's vision of 'Bharat' as a global cruise hub. With a capacity to handle 1 million passengers annually and the ability to dock five ships simultaneously, the terminal is not just a infrastructural feat but also a catalyst for economic growth, job creation, and enhanced connectivity.
