Under the Sagarmala Programme, the Central Ministries and State Governments will collect funds and use them for providing infrastructure facilities, social developmental projects, fisheries business, aquaculture, cold chain development, and more under their governance.

The Sagarmala Project will help in creating an interlinking between railways, roads, and water transports. It will eventually decrease the price of several commodities, as water transport is cheaper by 5%-6% compared to other transportation modes. Further, it will help in increasing the GDP of India.

The project will help people living near ports to sustain a better life and earn well. The money will help in the development of rural areas near coastlines or ports. Moreover, better traveling options will increase the tourism of such critical places as well.

Water transportation causes relatively little environmental pollution, but sometimes oil discharge from tankers seems to be the major problem to this mode of transportation. Ro-ro ferry service is currently implemented in India for ocean transport. Proper caution is required if it is extended to inland water transport on rivers. Water pollution can lead to water-borne diseases for people using polluted water for drinking, bathing, washing or irrigation As part of this policy Government should budget the task of cleaning the 8 major rivers. The motorized machine called Trash Skimmer can collect all kinds of floating matter in river.
