Kerala govt objects Centre’s move to hand over management of Thiruvananthapuram airport to pvt bidder
Kerala Government and most of the political parties have strongly objected to the Union Government’s decision to hand over the management and operation of Thiruvananthapuram airport to a private bidder .
The Union Cabinet had on Wednesday approved the proposal for leasing out airports at Jaipur, Guwahati and Thiruvananthapuram through public-private partnership.
Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan wrote to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, raising concerns on the unilateral decision that ignored Kerala’s requests that the airport’s management be transferred to a Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) in which the state government is a major stakeholder.
