In a significant stride towards simplifying and expediting port operations, Union Minister of the Ministry of Ports, Shipping, and Waterways (MoPSW), Sarbananda Sonowal, is set to unveil the pioneering PHO module of the Sagar Setu (National Logistics Platform for Multimodal Movement) on this noteworthy day. This cutting-edge initiative, aimed at revolutionizing the way business is conducted, particularly within the maritime sector, holds the potential to redefine the landscape of ‘Ease of Doing Business’ in India.
“The Sagar Setu (NLP-M) project is an embodiment of technological innovation intertwined with administrative efficiency. As a cornerstone of this initiative, the newly introduced PHO module, which stands for Prioritizing Health-related Operations, is poised to be a game-changer”. By placing health-related documents at the forefront of port operations, the module seeks to streamline and fast-track clearance processes, reducing bureaucratic bottlenecks and enhancing the overall ease of conducting business.
With the launch of the PHO module, the government reaffirms its commitment to creating an enabling environment for businesses to thrive. By placing health-related documents as a top priority, the Sagar Setu (NLP-M) initiative ensures that the interests of public health and economic growth are harmonized, reinforcing the idea that these aspects need not be at odds with each other.
