It vowed to take forward the legal battle in this regard.
Reacting to the Maldives government's stand that its decision of termination of Male airport contract to GMR-led consortium was "non-reversible and non-negotiable", CEO of GMR Male International Airport Andrew Harrison said sovereign guarantee was provided in the agreement and should be "respected".
Notwithstanding a stay granted by Singapore High Court, Maldives government said the termination notice stood and it will pay a compensation to the GMR Group.
The details of the compensation proposed by Maldives were not immediately available.
Harrison, in a television interview, also said: "The same concession agreement should be respected" and that the Maldives government was a guarantor to it.
He said the stay was granted by the Singapore High Court and "the (Maldives) Attorney General was present in the proceedings."
