He urged the States to look at multi-modal hubs for in-land container depots and make land available through the bidding mode to promote transparency and cut down costs.He urged the logistics sector to adopt the LEAD framework – Longevity, Efficiency and Effectiveness, Accessibility and Accountability and Digitalisation of processes to transform the logistics sector and prepare India for a Viksit Bharat by 2047.On this occasion, Goyal highlighted the significance of LEADS in providing actionable insights to States and UTs to advance logistics reforms. He commended the collaborative efforts of all stakeholders in making logistics a critical enabler for India’s economic growth. “Logistics should look at exponential growth for India to grow rapidly, he said.<\/p>\n
