The New Indian Express|September 17, 2024
TERMING the Tuticorin International Container Terminal (TICT) as the 'new star of India's marine infrastructure', Prime Minister Narendra Modi said the terminal at the VO Chidambaranar Port in Thoothukudi marks a significant milestone in India's journey towards becoming a developed nation.

The PM virtually inaugurated the terminal, after which Union Minister of Ports, Shipping and Waterways Sarbananda Sonowal dedicated it to the nation.

Developed at ₹434 crore, TICT is equipped to handle 6 lakh TEUS (Twenty-foot Equivalent Units) of containers annually. The terminal will be operated by the JM Baxi Group.

In a video message, Modi said that the international container terminal will play a crucial role in enhancing the capacity of the VOC Port, reducing the logistics cost and saving foreign exchange spending.
