Acute shortage of rocks and COVID-19 pandemic has led to slower execution of the project
The State government has written to the Tamil Nadu government seeking assistance for the unhindered transportation of rocks for the Vizhinjam international seaport project, Minister for Ports Ahammad Devarkovil informed the Assembly on Monday. Replying to questions in the House, Mr. Devarkovil said there were reports that some district collectors in Tamil Nadu and Karnataka were preventing the passage of trucks laden with rocks meant for the construction of the breakwater for the port project. An acute shortage of rocks and the COVID-19 pandemic has hit the progress of work on the port which had been awarded to the Adani Group, he noted. As per the agreement, the first phase should have been completed on December 3, 2019.
