Kerala government has finalised a number of mega infrastructure projects, for which, it is seeking domestic and foreign investments, Chief Minister Oommen Chandy said.
Through its road-show ‘Emerging Kerala 2012’, Kerala government invited India companies to grab Rs 2.4-trillion worth investment opportunities in the state.
Some of these projects are the High-speed Rail Corridor connecting Thiruvanthapuram with Mangalore at an investment of Rs 1.18 trillion, the National Investment and Manufacturing Zone entailing Rs 52,000 crore of investment, the Kochi Metro project entailing an investment of Rs 4,500 crore, and the upcoming Kannur International Airport which needs an investment of Rs 4,500 crore, Chandy said.
The Rs 45,000-crore first phase of the High-speed Rail Corridor will connect the state capital with the commercial hub Kochi and the work will hopefully begin from next April and will be completed by March 2018, the chief minister said.
