Jawaharlal Nehru Port lifts ban on metal scrap handling
Indias Jawaharlal Nehru Port repealed the temporary ban on the handling of import containers carrying iron and steel
scrap after congestion eased at the Nhava Sheva International Container Terminal. The ban had been in place since November 2004.
An estimated 3000 TEUs of sheet
scrap is expected to pass through the port now that the ban has been lifted. Jawaharlal Nehru Port handles almost 60% of
Indias overall container traffic.
