India needs higher investment in the port sector and still lags far behind the international ports in container traffic though there has been considerable growth in this segment over the past few years. There is a need to continually benchmark indian ports against the best ports worldwide and continue to engage in policy efforts so as to attain prices per container of port services which are the lowest in the world. The average turn around time for ships docking at most of the ports in india has been falling for the past three years. However pre-berthing time has been marginally increasing ever the years. Indian ports offer the lowest price per container as service charges.

The second line of the paragraph mentions "to continue to engage in policy efforts so as to attain prices per container which are lowest in the world". That means it hasn.t been achieved at present. So, inference is definitely false.
