ABOUT THE CONFERENCE
In September 2022, the Honourable Prime Minister of India introduced the National Logistics Policy to improve logistics efficiency as a function of infrastructure, services and human resources. The NLP has been hailed by both, the public and private sectors. It aims for digitalising the transport sector, reducing the number of obstacles and challenges faced by export-import firms and has the vision of creating a new digital platform named Ease of Logistics Services. Further, the Unified Logistics Interface Platform (ULIP) aims to bring all the digital services related to transportation, logistics, export and import into a single digital portal.
