THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: In an attempt to address the increasing accidents and ensure effective dredging activities at the harbour mouth in Muthalapozhi, the state government has tasked the principal secretary with convening a high-level meeting with the representatives of VISL and Adani Ports on June 20. Fisheries Minister Saji Cherian, while addressing the assembly during the question hour on Wednesday, said that Adani Ports had failed to consistently maintain the 5-metre depth in the harbour mouth as per the Memorandum of Understanding. To tackle the ongoing crisis, the Harbour Engineering Department is contemplating taking over the dredging activities from Adani Ports. The high-level meeting will delve into this matter and come to an agreement with Adani Ports regarding the payment for dredging activities conducted by the harbour department.
