Congestion at India's JNPA Forces Last-Minute Terminal Shuffles for Major Carriers
Severe port congestion at India's Jawaharlal Nehru Port Authority (JNPA), also known as Nhava Sheva, is forcing major shipping lines into last-minute operational changes. Carriers like Hapag-Lloyd and CMA CGM are diverting vessels to different terminals due to long berthing delays and high yard density. The disruption is primarily caused by a significant surge in import volumes, which is overwhelming the port's container-handling capacity. These ongoing logistical challenges are causing significant delays for shippers and impacting supply chain reliability at the country's busiest container gateway.
