The Mumbai Port Trust recently celebrated its 142nd Foundation Day in the presence of Union Minister for Road Transport, Highways and Shipping Nitin Gadkari (pictured). The event was held at the Concourse Hall, which is part of the International Cruise Terminal of the port. Gadkari didn't mince words while speaking about the state of health of the country's port infrastructure. "When making a passenger terminal you should keep world-class standards in mind," he urged. "How will a passenger terminal in a foreign country be is something you should ask. What kind of planning is needed for it. The existing terminal, when compared with international standards, will not even earn you 20 points out of 100."
