Shares of Adani Enterprises rose on expectations that $15 billion Carmichael coal mine may get clearance for mining. This project is stuck since 2010 for want of green nod. Adani group recently requested the Australian government to draft a special law prohibiting green groups from seeking repeated judicial reviews of environmental approvals, report added. Adani group had acquired the rights to develop Carmichael coal mines in the Galilee Basin of Queensland state in Australia involving an investment of $15 billion over a period of time. The project, which includes building a rail link and a port at Abbot Point to ship the coal out, has been opposed by green groups ever since.
Because of the opposition, the Adani group has been finding it difficult to get banks to fund the deal. Even, State Bank of India had withdrawn its committed loan of Rs 8000 crore to the project, report added.
