The setup of the simulator was reviewed by Shri Sanjay Sethi, IAS, Chairman, JNPT and Shri Unmesh Sharad Wagh, IRS, Deputy Chairman, JNPT.

The upgrades made to the physical simulator infrastructure such as the Human Machine Inter face (HMI) and Consoles will allow training for various emergency scenarios.
