Adani team to hold talks with CM Oommen Chandy on July 20
Thiruvananthapuram: A four-member delegation led by Goutham Adani’s son Karan Adani, who is also the executive director of Adani Ports, will visit Chief Minister Oommen Chandy on Monday to discuss further steps to make Vizhinjam International Seaport Limited a reality.
The delegation will meet Mr Chandy at the chief minister’s chamber in the Assembly complex at 12 noon. The dates for signing the agreement for the port and the inaugural ceremony for the construction are likely to come up at the meeting.
The visit is a follow-up of the state government submitting the letter of award to Adani Ports.
Both the chief minister and Port Minister K. Babu had earlier written to the centre seeking exemption from the cabotage law for the port.
Another letter will be sent to the centre to extend the cabotage exemption to Vallarpadam port, which ends in October. Mr Babu said in a statement on Friday.
