Goa will be made logistics hub of India, says Prabhu

Union Commerce and Industry Minister Suresh Prabhu on Saturday said that the government plans to turn Goa into a logistics hub of the country.

"We are going to make Goa the logistics hub of the country. There are four coastal states on the Western coast — Maharashtra, Karnataka, Kerala and Goa. After Mumbai, the biggest airport that is going to come up is in Goa (in Mopa)," he said.

The minister was addressing a gathering at the 'Goa Start Up and Innovation Day' organised by the state Information and Technology Department.
