The direct passenger ship service connecting Nagapattinam in Tamil Nadu to Kankesanthurai port near Jaffna covers a distance of 111 kilometers in about three and a half hours. “Considering the importance of this project, the Government of India has agreed to bear the entire estimated cost of the project,” the statement said.
