Save Kattupalli?? From whom?
Yet another Flip Flop of DMK

Most print media including the Wire & News Minute had taken up the expansion of Adani’s Katupalli port.

The National Herald had also reported this with a political flavour. But vital details missing in all these.


The Kattupalli port received approval & began construction during the DMK Regime. Surprised to see questions posted by them now on the need of this port when chennai already has 2 ports. EIA submitted in 2008 by L&T and the port became operational in 2013

The EIA submitted in 2008 had clear mention of no fishing activity near the coastal areas.

The future expansion plan also was part of the initial proposal that was submitted.

Also find the proposed development plan. Now compare it with the initial proposal. No change at all.


See the biased reporting of The Wire.

As per the application for environmental clearance submitted by MIDPL in 2018, 1087 acres of sea area will be reclaimed by using the dredged sand but Wire reports it as 2000 acres.

Total proposed area of expansion is 5238 Acres as per the report, Wire calls in 6111 acre master plan. Not sure where they got these information.

And the most important point to note in all these is MIDPL expansion proposal submitted by L&T, even before Adani acquired it.
