Deputy Minister of Ports in Sri Lanka Ruwan Kodithuwakku said rising military tensions between India and Pakistan have led to increased operational activity at the Colombo Port. The government has taken preemptive steps to effectively handle the increase in port traffic, the Deputy Minister acknowledged.
Maritime lines between India and Pakistan have been suspended due to the elevated state of alert in the area, impacting both Indian vessels traveling to Pakistan and Pakistani vessels traveling to India.
