“India’s gateway to streamlined and sustainable logistics lies in adopting multimodal transportation for Economical, Ecological, and Energy-efficient (3E Principal) cargo movement,” says Kiran B. Nandre, Director NVOCC & Short Sea Shipping, Rhenus Logistics India. He adds, “Over the past two decades, India has seen a push for multimodal connectivity. Initiatives like PM Gati Shakti for integrated infrastructure projects, Bharatmala Pariyojana for highways, Sagarmala for coastal and inland waterways, and Dedicated Freight Corridors for high-speed rail freight movement have laid the groundwork. Public-Private Partnerships have played a key role in developing a network of roads, railways, ports, warehouses, and port connectivity.”
