Rajya Sabha clears Indian Ports Bill, 2025: New law replaces 1908 Act; aims to make India maritime leader by 2047
NEW DELHI: The Rajya Sabha on Monday passed the Indian Ports Bill, 2025 — which seeks to replace the colonial-era Indian Ports Act, 1908 and provides for regulating of port operations with quality effort, sustainability and cooperative federalism, so as to make India a global maritime leader by the year 2047— but only after the Opposition parties had staged a walkout on the issue of special intensive revision (SIR) in Bihar. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now The Bill was passed by Lok Sabha last week. Ports, shipping and waterways Sarbananda Sonowal described the Bill as 'a milestone reform that unlocks India's maritime potential.' 'Ports are not just gateways for goods, they are engines of growth, employment and sustainable development. With the Indian Ports Bill, 2025, India is not just playing catch-up but laying the foundation to become a global maritime leader by 2047,' he said before the Bill was passed by a voice vote. Prior to the discussion on the Bill, the Oppn's demand for a debate on SIR was rejected by Chair Sasmit Patra, on the grounds that the matter was sub-judice and not related to the listed business. Leader of the House J P Nadda accused the Opposition of having no interest in discussion and wasting over 69 hours of House's time with its irresponsible behaviour. 'The Opposition only believes in anarchism and obstruction,' said Nadda. Once the Opposition benches were empty, it was smooth sailing for the Indian Ports Bill. Almost all speakers — Mokaria Ram Bhai, Rekha Sharma, M Thambidurai, Sunetra Ajit Pawar, Praful Patel, B P Baishya, etc — emphasised the need to replace the archaic 1908 law with a modern piece of legislation that promotes port connectivity, environment-friendly port operations and adherence to international maritime norms. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now When Thambi Durai alleged movement of contraband through state govt-managed ports in Tamil Nadu, DMK MPs led by Tiruchi Siva, who had walked out earlier, stormed back into the House to counter him. This led BJP MP Ram Chander Jangra to cite violation of the rule that an MP should pay respect to the chair while entering and leaving the House. 'This is not a saraay (guest house),' he complained. Sonowal, while replying to the debate, said that unlike the Congress regime that had no policy relating to ports and shipping, the Narendra Modi govt had in the past 11 years passed 11 laws in this sector. 'In 2013-14, during the UPA regime, our cargo handling capacity was 5 million metric tonnes (MMT). In the last 10 years, it has gone up to 855 MMT,' he said.

Parliament passes Indian Ports Bill 2025: Sonowal says India targets Singapore, Europe-style integrated planning
Synopsis The Parliament has approved the Indian Ports Bill, 2025, aiming to elevate India's maritime operations to global standards. Union Minister Sarbananda Sonowal highlighted that the bill will bring discipline to port operations, aligning with international best practices and environmental standards. ANI "Sets up Maritime State Development Council to boost cooperative federalism for holistic port development": Sarbananda Sonowal The Parliament passed Indian Ports Bill, 2025 Monday, backing the centre's pitch for establishing global standards for maritime operations in the country. Moving for passage of the bill, Union Ports, Shipping, and Waterways Minister Sarbananda Sonowal said port operations will become more disciplined after the provisions of this bill are adopted.'This bill is meticulously designed to align with the best global practices, mirroring the integrated planning models of Singapore and the robust environmental standards of the European Union,' Sonowal said while adding there is a continuous need to develop India's ports to accelerate growth of the economy. The Maritime State Development Council (MSDC) will be established as a recommendatory body empowered to advise the Central and State Governments. Sonowal said this will ensure a robust consultative framework between the states and the publication of port tariffs is being mandated. 'This would promote greater transparency, competitiveness and a fair operating environment,' Sonowal added. The bill introduces State-level Dispute Resolution Committees to provide a fast, efficient, and transparent mechanism for resolving port-related disputes. It also enforces adherence to global conventions like the International Convention for the Prevention of Pollution from Ships. Penalties and fines have been updated and decriminalised where appropriate, the minister said while noting that non-criminal contraventions and corresponding penalties can now be imposed by the conservator of the Port.'By modernizing our legal framework, we are not just playing catch-up, we are laying the foundation for India to become a global maritime leader by 2047, in line with our vision of a Viksit Bharat," Sonowal added.
