Transport centre to improve shipping services in the Andamans

"The road would be widened and hurdles in the way of connecting creeks between Mayabunder and Diglipur by bridges and at Middle Andaman will be tackled soon, as RS. 10.64 crores has already been sanctioned for it", suggested Pradhan.

Bishnu Pada Ray, Andaman MP, said Pradhan has also agreed to consider on a priority basis provision of a tug boat at Mayabunder to facilitate the berthing of mainland-bound ships by August.
