Second Terminal on River Ganga – How History is Being Written

A very bright chapter in India’s modern history was visible to the public in November 2018 when Prime Minister Narendra Modi had inaugurated the first Multi-Modal Terminal (MMT) on river Ganga at Varanasi.

September 12 marks the next milestone as the second among three MMT on Ganga is ready at Sahibganj at Jharkhand.

Simply put, it is not akin to adding another route to an already existing highways network or improving upon it.

Developing National Waterways is the concept that really took off after Modi government came to power.

Just bring the map of India before your eyes and consider the below facts and then you will understand the significance of this development of Sahibganj in Jharkhand on the river Ganga having a Multi-Modal Terminal.

In contrast, 60% of goods in India travel by congested roads and 25% via the rail network.
