Summary:
The ₹75000 Crore Great Nicobar Project aims to transform the southernmost island of Andaman & Nicobar into a financial hub like Hong Kong, featuring a Transshipment Port, International Airport, Power Plant, and townships.
Located 40 nautical miles from the busy Malacca Strait, the island’s deep waters and proximity to global trade routes make it ideal for transshipment. The project could save India $200–220 million annually by reducing dependence on foreign ports.
The project involves cutting 1 million trees, affecting tribal groups like the Shompen and Nicobarese and threatening the habitat of Leatherback Turtles and other wildlife.
The project is expected to generate 4000 jobs, accommodate 6.5 lakh residents by 2028, and boost tourism with leisure ecosystems, forest resorts, and international connectivity.
Accessibility issues, ecological risks, and the project's 30-year timeline (completion by 2058) present challenges. Balancing development with environmental conservation remains critical.
