TVM Aiport: Kerala Govt remains in controversy

The Kerala government is in controversy all over again and this time over hiring the services of a firm close to the Adani family in the state's bidding process for privatization of Thiruvananthapuram airport. The government lost the bid and Adani Enterprises which was a co-participant in the bidding won the bid to operate and manage Trivandrum International Airport. A report of RTI revealed that out of the Rs 2.36 crore spent by the Kerala State Industrial Development Corporation (KSIDC), Rs 55,39,522 was spent as a professional fee for bidding to law firm Cyril Amarchand Mangaldas.

Karan Adani is in-charge of the Vizhinjam port project and has closely interacted with the Kerala government. Leader of Opposition in Kerala assembly Ramesh Chennithala sought clarification from the state government over the involvement of the law firm. He has alleged a nexus between the state government and the Adani group.

"Reports of state government seeking legal advice on bidding process from Cyril Amarchand Mangaldas, a firm owned by a close relative of Adani, raise concerns. If true, this shows a nexus between the state government and the Adani Group," Chennithala said in a statement on Saturday. Chennithala said that this raises serious questions on proprietary and integrity and that the LDF government must explain how they hired the firm despite this conflict.
