News summary

Prime Minister Narendra Modi is visiting Maharashtra to address the Global Fintech Fest (GFF) 2024 in Mumbai and lay the foundation stone for the Vadhvan Port project in Palghar. The GFF, a major event organized by the Payments Council of India and other key stakeholders, will feature over 800 speakers and launch more than 20 thought leadership reports. The Vadhvan Port, a Rs 76,000 crore project, aims to become one of India's largest deep-water ports, enhancing maritime connectivity and boosting trade.
