No alternative to SilverLine project: Pinarayi

THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: SilverLine is a dream project of the state and there is no alternative to it, Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan told the assembly on Tuesday. He said the allegation that the project would divide the state into two was baseless and explained that flyovers and bridges would be constructed to minimise the exploitation of nature.

“The construction of the project will also take into account the environment. It is not true that the project will create natural disasters. Studies are underway to minimise the use of natural resources,” the CM said. The project can be implemented in an environment-friendly manner.
