To further enhance the efficiency of the Dedicated Freight Corridor (DFC), Jawaharlal Nehru Port Authority (JNPA) Chairman Gaurav Dayal, IAS, along with Deputy Chairman Ravish Singh, IRTS, and senior port officials, undertook a comprehensive field inspection of key railway infrastructure along the DFC route.

The delegation visited Kharbhav Railway Station, exploring its strategic integration with the DFC to facilitate faster movement of containerized cargo from JNPA to the major consumption and distribution hubs of Bhiwandi—helping reduce transit time and road congestion.

The team also visited the Bhiwandi Warehousing Hub to assess supply-chain capacity, last-mile logistics and storage readiness, followed by an inspection of New Nilanje Railway Station to evaluate its potential as an additional freight node.

JNPA continues to strengthen multimodal connectivity and build a more efficient, resilient and future-ready logistics ecosystem for India.
