Adani’s project in Sri Lanka | Explained

The Hindu  

The story so far: On January 24, news agency AFP reported that Sri Lanka revoked a 2024 power purchasing agreement signed with Adani Green Energy Limited. The move drew attention, with many in Sri Lanka flagging President Anura Kumara Dissanayake’s pre-poll pledge to cancel the “corrupt” project that has been mired in controversy from the time it was approved. Adani Green Energy Limited is to build a wind power plant project in the Mannar and Pooneryn towns in Sri Lanka’s northern province, investing $442 million. Ferdinando resigned, days after he told a parliamentary panel that Prime Minister Narendra Modi had “pressured” Sri Lankan President Gotabaya Rajapaksa to clear the Adani Group project. In February 2023, Sri Lanka’s Board of Investment approved a project to set up two wind power plants in northern Sri Lanka, with a $442 million investment from Adani Green Energy Limited.
