| 摘要： | The Indian coastline is dotted with many ports. Some of these ports – the important ones called ‘Major Ports’ are owned by the Central Government and administered through a Board of Trustees. All other ports are owned and administered by the respective Maritime State governments. The age old ‘Indian Ports Act 1908’ provides the regulatory framework for all ports and the ‘Major Port Trust Act 1963’ in particular covers Major Ports. These ports have not been providing cost effective services, have outdated infrastructure and have no dynamism in management. At the same time the new economic regime has increased demand for efficient port services. In order to handle the projected port traffic of 565 million tonnes by 2006-07, creation of additional port capacities would require Rs 154 billion (US $ 3 billion). Even with State funding and internal resource of existing ports, Indian ports sector development will need an additional US $ 2 billion in next five years. To mobilise the required resources the State has decided to bring about a policy change and involve private sector participation. With the entry of private sector, the existing State control of ports have also to undergo a change to ensure a balanced mix of State control and private participation. Towards this objective, the authors have outlined a future vision of State control, which contemplates a new single All Ports Act and the creation of a National Port Authority. The created authority is to be a facilitator first and a watch dog/regulator next. This paper has discussed various related issues to focus on the new thrust areas in the State control mechanism. |
