Kandla is the following was the first port developed soon after Independence to use the volume of trade on the Mumbai Port. After independence, Kandla was the first port to be built to facilitate the volume of trade in the port of Mumbai. Before, India used the Independence Karachi port for this purpose. However, during the partition, Karachi went to Pakistan. Ergo the government built a new port in the Arabian sea called Kandla port. These ports are essential in the International North-South Trade Corridor (INSTC), which links the Indian Ocean to trade with the Eurasian trade routes and the Arctic. The coastal regions of India are Maharashtra, Kerala, Goa, Karnataka, Gujarat, Andhra Pradesh, etc.
