Petitions against Adani Green Energy’s Wind Power Project in Mannar dropped

written by MIAP Source

March 18, Colombo (LNW): The Fundamental Rights (FR) petitions filed in the Supreme Court challenging the Cabinet’s approval for the Adani Green Energy wind power project in Wedithalathivu, Mannar, were officially withdrawn today (18).

The withdrawal follows a motion presented by the Attorney General (AG) to the court, which informed that Adani Green Energy, the Indian energy giant behind the project, had formally notified the Chairman of Sri Lanka’s Board of Investment (BOI) of their decision to pull out from the venture.

This written communication marked the end of the legal challenge, with the petitioners, including the Centre for Environmental Justice (CEJ), confirming that they would no longer pursue their claims.

The proposed wind power project had sparked significant controversy and public debate due to environmental concerns raised by various stakeholders.
