Patna DM Inspects Sites for Cruise Terminal, Jetty, and Ship Repair Hub
Patna District Magistrate Chandrashekhar Singh inspected potential sites for a cruise terminal, jetty, and ship repair facility on February 5, 2026. The visit advances Bihar’s inland waterways development under Union Budget 2026 allocations.

Patna DM Inspects Sites for Cruise Terminal, Jetty, and Ship Repair Hub

At Pahalwan Ghat, 2 acres are allocated for a world-class cruise terminal. Officials assessed Gandhi Ghat for a jetty and the Ganga riverbank near Kurji for the ship repair hub, including dry dock construction.​

The ship repair center, costing Rs 4.15 crore on 5 acres near Kurji, supports National Waterway-1 vessels. PM Modi laid its foundation in September 2025; fencing and signage are complete, with work accelerating post-budget mention.​

Developments position Patna as a Ganga cruise hub, reducing reliance on Kolkata for repairs and boosting local employment and trade via eco-friendly inland transport.
