Sri Lanka new administration to reassess the Adani Wind Power Project Featured

The Attorney General informed the Supreme Court today that the new Cabinet has decided to reassess the Adani Wind Power Project in Mannar.

This notification was made during the hearing of fundamental rights petitions filed by the Wildlife and Nature Protection Society, the Centre for Environmental Justice, and several other parties, seeking to nullify the Cabinet's approval for the project.

The petitions seeking to nullify the Cabinet's approval for the Adani Wind Power Project in Mannar, were heard before a five-judge bench comprising Justices S. Thurairaja, A.H.M.D. Nawaz, Shiran Gunaratne, Achala Wengappuli, and Mahinda Samayawardana.

Deputy Solicitor General Dr. Avanthi Perera, representing the Cabinet Secretary, the Minister of Energy, and the Attorney General, stated that the reassessment would consider the terms of the agreement between the Sri Lankan government and India's Adani Group, as well as the concerns raised in the petitions.
