India to manufacture containers in Bhavanagar to reduce import dependence

India is looking to start production of containers at Bhavnagar, Gujarat to attain self-reliance in container production amid surge in global demand, Union Minister Mansukh Mandaviya said. The government had selected 10 places in the country for pilot project, which has been successful. It expects private players to invest about INR 1,000 crore in this space. India requires about 3.5 lakh containers every year. The country has been dependent on China as there is no container production in India.
