A bi-weekly passenger-cum-ferry service between Cochin and Male (Maldives) will be starting soonn. Initially the ferry service between Cochin and Male is to be run by a private operator but facilities on either port of call should be arranged by the concerned ports.
Request for Proposal (RFP) documents along with possible terms and conditions for the service are to be considered and approved by the nodal Ministries of India and Male. Ministry of Shipping, Government of India and the Ministry of Transport and Communication, Government of Male will be initiating work on getting all necessary clearances to operationalise the ferry service at the earliest. Pending finalization of the RFP, the two sides will invite Expressions of Interests (EoI) from interested private parties for starting this ferry service. Shipping Corporation of India under the Ministry of Shipping would be assisting on the technical aspects in operationalising the service.
