Introduction to states in the western

region-

Gujarat

Gujarat is spread over an area of 196,024 sq km (6 per cent of Indias land area). It is located on

the Western coast of India and has the longest coastline of 1,600 km in the country.There are

eight agro climatic zones in the state that support cultivation of a wide range of crops.

Industrially developed state- Gujarat is the petro capital of India, contributing 34 per cent to

petrochemicals and 27 per cent to the countrys chemicals and pharmaceuticals business .

Gujarat produces about 90%of Indias required amount ofSoda Ash and gives the country

about 66% of its national requirement ofsalt. Kalol Khambat and Ankaleshwar are today

known for their oil and natural gas production. Dhuranan has a thermal power station,

which uses coal, oil and gas. It has achieved the distinction of being one of the most industrially

developed states. Accounting for 5 per cent of the total Indian population, Gujarat

contributes 21 per cent to Indias exports and 13 per cent to its industrial production.

It was developed by Gujarat Adani Port Ltd. (now Mundra Port & SEZ Ltd). Mundra port

achieved 52 million tons of cargo for the year 2010-11 (40 million in 2009-10) growing at an

impressive rate of 42% CAGR for the last 4 years. Mundra port has diversified into various

cargoes like coal, container, steel, agri commodities, ship to shore, automobile exports,

containers, crude, vegetable oil and chemicals.

According to Data from the Indian Ports Association, the highest growth was reported by the

Adani Group-promoted Mundra Port, which saw traffic jump 28% to 51.60 million tonnes of

cargo in 2010-11, against 40.30 million tonnes in the previous year.

Connectivity:

Rail

Mundra Port is well connected to the Indian railway network. The port has 7 railway sidings and

two dedicated diesel locomotives which can handle double stack container trains. A 64 km

private railway line has been developed which connects the port with the national network at

Adipur. Adipur falls on the broad gauge from Mumbai to Bhuj.

Road

Mundra Port is about 65 km from Bhuj and 400 km from Ahmedabad. It is easily accessible bythe national highway network (NH 8A and NH 15). As NH 8A is part of the East-West Corridor

of the Golden Quadrilateral project (connecting the four Indian metrosMumbai, Chennai, New

Delhi and Kolkata), which runs from Porbandar in the west to Silchar on in the northeast, the

proximity of this port to this highway is of strategic importance.

Central Railway plays an important role in Goods Traffic movement connecting North & South

as well as East & West parts of country. Mostly the Fertilizers move from Westers regions,

Food grains from Northern regions, Coal/Steel/Ores from Eastern/South-Eastern to Other parts

of country, in addition to Port bound traffic and POL.

Traffic Pattern on CR is summarise below:

Outward Traffic:

o Coal is being loaded from Western Coalfields Limited for various power houses ofMaharashtra and Gujrat like Chandrapur, Paras, Bhusawal, Nasik, Parli, Ukai Songarh,

Gandhinagar etc. in addition coal for captive power plants, paper and textile industries isalso dispatched. Coal imported at Mumbai Port is also moved to some Power houses and

Tata Thermal Power house, Trombay.

o Among other goods, sugar is loaded from Kolhapur Baramati area of Pune division,Onion is loaded from Nasik-Manmad area of Bhusawal and Solapur division, DOC is

loaded from various stations of Bhusawal and Nagpur divisions.

Inward Traffic: Consists of Cement, Fertilizer, Foodgrain, POL and Steel. Export container

traffic contributes major part of inward traffic.

Konkan Railway

Freight response to the Konkan Railway was lukewarm, prompting the worried corporation to

consider cutting rates. With an outstanding debt of Rs. 3,375 crore, KRCL was banking onfreight traffic to bail it out. In an effort to attract freight traffic, the corporation began creating

awareness among local industries on the route. In 1999, the corporation introduced theRoll-on/roll-off(RORO) service, a unique road-rail synergy system, on the section between Kolad in

Maharashtra and Verna in Goa, which was extended up to Surathkal in Karnataka in 2004. TheRORO service, the first of its kind in India, allowed trucks to be transported on flatcars. It was

highly popular,[29]

carrying about 1.6 lakh trucks and bringing in over Rs.120 crore worth of

earnings to the corporation till 2009.

Konkan railway roro service

Rail Based Multi Modal Freight Logistics Park across the DMIC (Delhi-Mumbai Industrial

Corridors).With a view to provide efficient logistics services, Indian Railways has embarked into

a massive investment to create dedicated freight corridor between Delhi and Mumbai (called

Western DFC).

Western DFC could provide high speed, heavy pay load only for freight traffic. Western DFCpasses through most high density transport arteries of the country i.e. Maharashtra, Gujarat,

Rajasthan, Haryana, Delhi, Uttar Pradesh with a route length of 1483km.

Gujarat shares 38% of the route covering Valsad, Surat, Vadodara, Anand, Ahmedabad,

Mehsana, Palanpur. This corridor is expected to carry predominantly, container traffic, bulk and

break-bulk cargo. To support this infrastructure, DMIC Delhi-Mumbai Industrial Corridor,

Special Economic Zones, MMLPs Investment Regions, Industrial Area are likely to be set up

contiguous to Western DFC in the coming years. MMLP is the refined form of Logistics Park

where various value added services are rendered in addition to rail/road based transportation. It is

now-a-days a globally identified supply management and known by different names in different

countries.

Cushman and Wakefield have published a report Logistics Industry- Real Estates New Power

House which avers that Indian logistics industry is expected to grow annually @ 15 to 25%.Major cities like Kolkata Mumbai, Chennai-Hyderabad, have identified locations for LogisticsPark. These are the different kind of logistics services:

Gujarat, being strategically situated on the west coast of the country, has emerged as one of the

fastest growing industrial states with 26 districts in the land area of 1.96 lakh sq. km. It has thelongest costal line of 1600 km hosting 1 major port and 40 non-major ports Kandla, Mumbai,

Pipavav, Navlakhi, Magdallah ports are worth to mention. Endowed with only 6% of the

geographical area and 5% of indias population, Gujarats share at current prices accounts for

nearby 6.7% of the national GDP. It accounts for 20% of the countrys total industrial production

and contributes nearly 7% to the national GDP. The prominent cities of the state are Ahmedabad,

Surat, Vadodara, Jamnagar, Rajkot and Jamnagar. Several land marks achievements in respect of

industries agriculture, commodities and infrastructure can be credited to Gujarat.

Future Connectivity Augmentation Measures

It can be reasonably believed that by 2011-12 when the Western DFC is expected to becommissioned, the Indian Railways will be fully geared to effectively meet the demands of

traffic emanating from the proposed DMIC. Further, if not already connected by rail, all the new

industrial sites identified for development under the DMIC project and connectivity to other

important minor/ intermediate ports along the west coast in Maharashtra and Gujarat are

proposed to be linked to the DFC to ensure improved rail connectivity in the influence area of

DMIC. Discussions with the Chairman, Railway Board reveal that Ministry of Railways may

consider construction of Dedicated Freight Corridor connectivity between Mumbai (at Thane)

and Pune so as to ensure the highly intensive industrial activities of the region with the JN Port.

Discussions have also revealed that Indian Railways plans to develop high speed passenger rail

connectivity between Ahmedabad-Mumbai.

The line originates at offshore, carrying associated gas from Mumbai High and free gas

from South Bassein fields to Hazira. It is a 36 inch diameter pipeline. It was designed to

carry 20MMSCMD of gas, expandable to 30 MMSCMD capacity. After treatment of gas

at Hazira, the HBJ pipeline starts with compression ofthe gas. Its first phase was 1700

KM long, traveling through Gujarat, Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh to UP and North India.

Along its entire route, it provides feedstock to a number of fertilizer plants and power

plants. At a number of places (Guna, Vijaipur etc.) LPG plants extract the LPG before the

gas is given to the buyer. Also there are six booster stations.

In order to transport gas from new discovery sites and Dahej and Hazira terminals, new gas pipelines need

to be laid. The present HBJ pipeline has the capacity to transport 25 MMSCMD gas imported from Qatar.
