India’s culture and tourism sector is one of its most vibrant service sectors. The country’s rich culture and heritage make it one of the most interesting destinations in the world to visit.

Infrastructure: Ports, inland waterways, roadways, logistics, railways, airports
Indian ports handled about 1,135 million tonnes of traffic in 2016–17. Of this, around 57% was handled by ports that come under the purview of the Government of India (called major ports), and the rest was handled by ports under state government purview (non-major ports).
Smart mobility
Indian cities are evolving rapidly with the changing requirements of the country’s increasing populace. Increasing urbanisation is posing immense pressure on the existing infrastructure and is compelling policymakers to take note of major issues related to inadequate and inefficient public transport services and related infrastructure, increasing greenhouse gas emissions, and lack of technological interventions to promote service delivery to end users.
Digital bridge to growth
