MUMBAI : The Maharashtra Government is looking at developing two new deep water greenfield ports in the Konkan region.

Greenfield projects are built from scratch and not constrained by prior work; they require no reconstruction or demolition of existing structures.

Through its maritime organisation, the Maharashtra Maritime Board (MMB), the state government would initiate a study to identify coastal areas near Vijaydurg and Ganeshgule, two sleepy coastal towns in the Sindhudurg and Ratnagiri districts, respectively.
