Union Home Minister Amit Shah will on Tuesday, June 9, formally launch the Land Port Management System (LPMS) in New Delhi — a landmark step in India's digital transformation of border infrastructure. The cutting-edge platform is designed to bring all of India's land ports under a single, unified digital system — placing them on par with airports and seaports in terms of real-time logistics management and regulatory coordination.
