The Supreme Court (SC) has fixed for consideration on 14 October the five Fundamental Rights (FR) petitions filed seeking an order to invalidate the Cabinet approval granted for India’s Adani Green Energy for a wind power project in Wedithalathivu, Mannar.
When the petitions were taken up today (2), the SC ordered the respondents of the petitions to file limited or counter objections related to them before 20 August and 13 September respectively.
The petitions, submitted by five parties including the Centre for Environmental Justice, argue that the proposed wind farm poses significant threats to ecological biodiversity and the safety of migratory birds.
