‘Policy has enhanced biz opportunities, collaborations & supply chain efficiency’

On completion of two years of National Logistics Policy, Nikhil Agarwal, President, CJ Darcl Logistics said, “NLP has been a boon for India in its aspiration to become a $7 trillion economy by 2030. Reducing logistics cost, enhancing infrastructure and trading operations in the policy are planned to make India as a global logistics hub. In the last two years, the policy has handled fundamental issues by leveraging technology, advocating for a multi-modal transport system, and enhancing the business environment. This policy has been effectively implemented across diverse ministries and has provided the logistics sector with a solid foundation of structural improvements and systemic transformations. The policy has provided unprecedented business opportunities and supply chain enhancements through government-led industrial collaboration and stakeholder coordination, which could help India actualize its dream of transforming into a developed country by 2047. The changes in policy goals towards innovation, sustainability, and improving infrastructure are gradually pushing the country towards a more competitive logistics environment. In this regard, CJ Darcl commends the government for their continued support to the logistics industry through the National Logistics Policy initiative. The application of technologies and more focus on implementation of sustainable measures allowed for the better management of complexities and disruptions. As for the future, we believe that the next stage of the development of NLP will provide further refinements and the scope for improvement in service provision and customer acquisition.”
