Shipping Corporation of India chief warns Kolkata Port Trust on costs

KOLKATA: Shipping Corporation of India Chairman S Hajara on Wednesday warned Kolkata Port Trust on long-term prospects of the port due to the cost issue.

"In the long run it will go against the interest of the industry as cost of cargo to KoPT will be higher due to inability of the port to handle large vessels," SCI chairman S Hajara said on the sidelines of the closing ceremony of the golden jubilee of the Indian Institute of Management.
