Union Minister Nitin Gadkari on Saturday, while acknowledging the untapped potential of cruise tourism, said it would be highly beneficial to use water transport in Mumbai.

"We can begin water transport by bringing in floating jetties at western front. It'll be beneficial to use water transport in Mumbai. We have decided to use methanol, LNG, ethanol as fuel in Mumbai," Gadkari said while addressing Mumbai 2.0 Conference organised by Project Mumbai and the Maharashtra government.
