About Pipavav
Pipavav is a private port on the Gujarat coast, built to relieve the congestion at Nhava Sheva and connected inland by a dedicated rail link to the northern hinterland. It is usually less congested than the Mumbai ports and dwell times are shorter. For cargo bound for Delhi and the north it is a genuine alternative to Nhava Sheva.
