Recently, which of the following States has explored the possibility of constructing an artificial inland port to be connected to sea by a long navigational channel?

Rajasthan explored the possibility of developing an artificial inland port at Jalore by constructing a navigational channel connecting it to the Arabian Sea through the Rann of Kutch. While Andhra Pradesh is a major maritime state, it already possesses an extensive coastline and established seaports, making the creation of a long inland navigational channel to reach the sea unnecessary compared to landlocked Rajasthan's unique proposal. The core concept tested is infrastructure development and inland waterway connectivity aimed at providing maritime access to landlocked regions.
