Vizhinjam Port expansion in Kerala aims to double its workforce by 2028 during construction progress.
The expansion plan includes extending the breakwater, adding two more berths, and increasing cargo-handling capacity.
The port anticipates handling about five million containers annually by 2028, necessitating additional manpower across various roles.
Efforts are being made to train and recruit locally from Vizhinjam and Thiruvananthapuram while bridging skill gaps and creating more employment opportunities in the region.
