Draft Annual Plan Proposals 2012-23 of Andaman and Nicobar Islands Volume-II

Abstract

The Port Management Board in the Island started functioning since April, 1989 with only the skeleton manpower transferred from the erstwhile Marine & Shipping Departments of the A&N Administration, which was subsequently augmented to some extent with the officers and staff during the VIIIth and IXth Five Year Plans. The manpower acquired till XIth Five Year Plan were felt inadequate to effectively manage, operate and maintain the infrastructures created . This Scheme therefore envisages strengthening of organization for smooth and efficient Administration of the Ports.
