North South Transport Corridor (NSTC)

The North-South Transport Corridor (NSTC) is a multi-modal route connecting India, Iran, and Russia through Central Asia. It facilitates the movement of goods via rail, road, and sea, reducing transportation time and costs between these regions. The corridor enhances trade connectivity, bypassing traditional routes that face geographic or geopolitical challenges, and aims to promote economic cooperation among participating countries. By improving logistics and infrastructure, the NSTC supports regional development and strengthens economic ties across Asia, the Middle East, and Europe.
