The proposed legislation aims to promote coastal shipping as an eco-friendly and cost-effective mode of transport while reducing the compliance burden for Indian shipping operators in line with the Centre's ease of doing business initiative. The bill, cleared by the Lok Sabha on April 3, was passed by a voice vote in the Upper House amid sloganeering by Opposition MPs.
