Gujarat high court closed the doors on proposed port at Positra near Jamnagar.
Back
in 1995, Positra was identified as one of the projects for a PPP
project, SKIL Infrastructure Ltd. promoted "Gujarat Positra Port Co Ltd"
shown interest in port development at Positra.
Gujarat Maritime Board
appointed the National Institute of Oceanography (NIO) to evaluate the
environment impact assessment study in 2000, later based on this report
and an assessment report from two independent experts, the proposal was
rejected as a port in Positra would adversely impact the Marine National
Park at Jamnagar.
Today,
Gujarat high court refused for re-assesment of the impact study and
hence there will be no more port development at Positra.
