Investing in human capital will be the game changer in next few decades and Gujarat’s timely intervention with the development of Gujarat Maritime University will help the State reap the benefits of its visionary thinking.

This initiative will ensure that trained students are taken on board which will in turn enhance India’s competitiveness in the changing face of maritime industry across the globe. Such reactiveness grandly demonstrates the state’s commitment and preparedness in developing the maritime sector which will go a long way in building tomorrow’s maritime infrastructure.

I congratulate the Gujarat Maritime Board team on this wonderful and welcome initiative.
