The strategic Chabahar port in Iran is likely to be operational by next month. According to a Congressional report, India has accelerated the construction work on the port after a brief halt. "It accelerated work in early 2021 and the port is expected to be declared operational no later than May 2021," said the CRS report. The port and an associated railway near it will provide India access to Afghanistan for trade.
