Haryana set to emerge as a major force in logistics and supply chain: CM
1 2 3 Kurukshetra: Haryana is set to become a major force in India's logistics and supply chain sector, chief minister Nayab Singh Saini announced during the inauguration of the Inland Container Depot (ICD) and the PM Gati Shakti Cargo Terminal at Dhirpur in Kurukshetra. Describing the terminal as a transformative milestone, the CM emphasised its potential to drive prosperity among farmers, entrepreneurs, and traders while creating new employment opportunities for the youth. Highlighting the state's growing appeal for global investors, Saini lauded the Saraf Group from Dubai for investing in the region. "This investment reflects strong confidence in Haryana's pro-business environment and represents the deepening economic ties between India and the UAE," said Saini. The state-of-the-art terminal, spread across 18 acres, offers integrated facilities such as customs clearance, warehousing, and cold storage under one roof — amenities once exclusive to metros like Delhi and Mumbai. The CM said such infrastructure would significantly boost the ease of doing business and open up new avenues for investment in Haryana. The project is a key part of the PM Gati Shakti National Master Plan, aimed at building holistic infrastructure. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Perdagangkan CFD Emas dengan Broker Tepercaya IC Markets Mendaftar Undo Saini stressed that the terminal was not just a logistics hub for Haryana but also a strategic gateway benefiting neighbouring states like Punjab, Himachal Pradesh, and Uttarakhand. "This is a shining example of integrated infrastructure development and our commitment to making India a developed nation under Prime Minister Narendra Modi's vision," he said. The Saraf Group is also operating a Multimodal Logistics Park on 115 acres in Palwal, while developing a transshipment hub on 30 acres in Rewari, further reinforcing the state's growing logistics network. Saini attributed the progress to the vision of former CM Manohar Lal, who endorsed the project during a visit to Dubai. "This ICD project is a seal of approval on our simple yet powerful economic and logistics policies," he said. The CM also highlighted the role of Haryana's department of foreign cooperation, which was supporting businesses and facilitating skilled manpower for global markets. The terminal is expected to reduce logistics costs by 20-30% and significantly cut down delivery time. This will increase the credibility and global demand for Haryana's products. "As transportation, packaging, and logistics services grow, it will also generate thousands of job opportunities for our youth," Saini remarked. Calling Dhirpur depot a "Gateway to Global Trade", the CM urged the young entrepreneurs to take full advantage of this facility and contribute to making Haryana India's top export hub. The inauguration ceremony was attended by several dignitaries, including former minister Subhash Sudha, Saraf Group vice-chairman Sharafuddin Saraf, ,chairman Salah Saraf, Kurukshetra deputy commissioner Neha Singh, SP Nitish Aggarwal, and other prominent persons and officials.
