Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

India's rise as a global economic force has been powered not only by factories, highways and technology, but by something equally vital: its ports.For decades, India's maritime gateways have carried the weight of the nation's ambition. From congested harbours and labour-intensive cargo handling to deep-water terminals, mechanised operations, integrated logistics corridors and world-class port infrastructure, the transformation of India's ports has mirrored the transformation of India itself.Few professionals have witnessed this extraordinary journey as closely or shaped it as directly as K. Muralidharan.Beginning his career in the late 1980s, at the threshold of India's economic reforms, Muralidharan went on to work across nearly every dimension of the maritime and infrastructure landscape: port planning, project development, operations, logistics systems, industrial parks and large-scale nation-building projects. His professional journey runs in parallel with the modernisation of India's port sector.Ports of India takes readers beyond statistics and policy, into the real world of decisions, challenges, breakthroughs and lessons that shaped one of the country's most critical industries. Drawing on more than four decades of firsthand experience, landmark projects, and practical insight, the book reveals how ports are planned, built, and operated, and why they are central to India's trade, industrialisation, competitiveness, and future growth.
