After Polavaram Project, Andhra govt cancels the Rs 12,000 Crore Machilipatnam Port Project

[Gaali_Gottam_Govinda]

Former Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu had in February laid the foundation stone for the deep sea port to be constructed at an estimated cost of Rs 12,000 crore.

 

In another major decision, the Andhra Pradesh government on Thursday cancelled the concession agreement for the development of Machilipatnam port.

The state government issued an order, resuming 412 acres of land which was given on lease. The order issued by the department of industry, infrastructure, investment and commerce, made it clear that the government reserves the liberty to claim compensation for the damages suffered by the government from Machilipatnam Port Private Limited (MPPL).

This is the second major project cancelled by the new government led by Y S Jagan Mohan Reddy. It came a week after the government asked Navayuga Engineering Company Limited (NECL) to exit from Polavaram irrigation project.

Interestingly, NECL is the lead promoter in MPPL.

It was in February this year that then Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu laid the foundation stone for the deep sea port to be constructed at an estimated cost of Rs 12,000 crore.

The greenfield, all-weather multi-purpose port was coming up in Machilipatnam town in Krishna district near Amaravati.

Thursday's development came amid allegations by Naidu and his Telugu Desam Party (TDP) that YSRCP government was trying to handover Machilipatnam port to Telangana. YSRCP has denied the allegations.

It was in 2008, when Jagan's father Y S Rajasekhar Reddy was the Chief Minister, that the state government had awarded the project to a consortium led by MAYTAS Infra Pvt Ltd. NECL was inducted as the lead promoter of the project in 2009.

According to the government order, concessionaire failed to fulfil its obligations like payment of lease rentals and achieving financial closure over last 11 years.

At the time of laying of foundation stone early this year it was announced that that the port will be spread across 4,800 acres. The first phase with four berths was expected to be completed and operational in 18 months. It was also announced that the port will have 40 million tonnes capacity in the first phase. When completed, the port's handling capacity was to go up to 150 million tonnes.

సాక్షి, అమరావతి: మచిలీపట్నం (బందరు) పోర్టు కాంట్రాక్టును రద్దు చేస్తూ రాష్ట్ర ప్రభుత్వం గురువారం ఉత్తర్వులిచింది. ఈ పోర్టు నిర్మించడానికి 2010 జూన్‌ 7న నవయుగ సంస్థతో రాష్ట్ర ప్రభుత్వం ఒప్పందం కుదుర్చుకున్న సంగతి తెలిసిందే. కానీ, పోర్టు నిర్మాణం దిశగా ఇప్పటివరకు ఒక్క అడుగు కూడా ముందుకు పడకపోవడంతో కాంట్రాక్టును రద్దు చేస్తూ ప్రభుత్వం నిర్ణయం తీసుకుంది. నవయుగ సంస్థ ఇప్పటికే మరో ఓడరేవును నిర్వహిస్తుండడంతో ఆ ప్రాజెక్టు లాభదాయకతను దృష్టిలో పెట్టుకొని ఉద్దేశపూర్వకంగానే బందరు పోర్టు నిర్మాణం విషయంలో జాప్యం చేస్తోందని అధికారులు అంటున్నారు. బందరు పోర్టు నిర్మాణం పేరిట ఇప్పటికే నవయుగ సంస్థ తీసుకున్న 471.28 ఎకరాల భూమికి పైసా కూడా లీజు చెల్లించలేదు. దీంతో నవయుగ సంస్థతో కుదుర్చుకున్న ఒప్పందాన్ని ప్రజా ప్రయోజనాలను దృష్టిలో పెట్టుకొని తక్షణమే రద్దు చేయడంతో పాటు ఇప్పటికే ఇచ్చిన భూమిని తిరిగి స్వాధీనం చేసుకోవాలంటూ ప్రభుత్వం ఉత్తర్వులిచ్చింది. దీనికి సంబంధించిన నష్ట పరిహారాన్ని మచిలీపట్నం పోర్టు ప్రైవేట్‌ లిమిటెడ్‌ నుంచి వసూలు చేయనున్నట్లు ఆ ఉత్తర్వుల్లో పేర్కొన్నారు.
