‘India is conquering its own limitations with improved transport time & connectivity’

Afzal Malbarwala, Managing Director, Galaxy Freight, said, “The air cargo volumes have rebounded so much that India’s air cargo market is now being seen as one of the most lucrative bets for freighter operators and other stakeholders across the world. As far as road infra is concerned, India is conquering its own limitations with expressways and highways cutting down transport time drastically and improving connectivity with ports and airports. Union Minister for Road Transport Nitin Gadkari recently said within two years, India’s road infra will be comparable to that of the USA. The minister highlighted the DFC is an effort to increase the share of rail freight and leverage the third most efficient rail network in the world to lower logistics cost to single digits.”
