Due to its enormous scale, and despite of regression and advancement in climate change its potential economic and social effects (including fiscal litigation that enable economic and social contributions income), the project has met fierce opposition because against climate change impacts. of its potential environmental and social impacts.

  • Dossier on the Adani Group's Environmental and Social Record
    Dossier on the Adani Group’s environmental and social record Construction of Adani’s Godda power station proceeds on lands acquired from indigenous (Adivasi) farmers near Godda. Two Adivasi look on. Photo by Geoff Law, February 2020 Preliminary Edition, September 2020 Preamble AdaniWatch is a non-profit project established by the Bob Brown Foundation to shine a light on the Adani Group’s misdeeds across the planet. In Australia, Adani is best known as the company behind the proposed Carmichael coal mine in Queensland. However, the Adani Group is a conglomeration of companies engaged in a vast array of businesses, including coal-fired power stations, ports, palm oil, airports, defence industries, solar power, real estate and gas. The group’s founder and chairman, Gautam Adani, has been described as India’s second-richest man and is a close associate of Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The Adani Group is active in several countries but particularly in India, where accusations of corruption and environmental destruction have dogged its rise to power. In central India, Adani intends to strip mine ancestral lands belonging to the indigenous Gond people. Large tracts of biodiverse forest, including elephant habitat, are in the firing line. Around the coastline of India, Adani’s plans to massively expand its ports are generating outcry from fishing villages and conservationists. In the country’s east, Adani is building a thermal power station designed to burn coal from Queensland and sell expensive power to neighbouring Bangladesh. Investigations, court actions and allegations of impropriety have accompanied Adani’s progress in many of these business schemes.

  • Aviation Regulator DGCA on Saturday Suspended a First Officer of Spice
    1 Revue de presse du 29 aout au 13 septembre 2019 Mumbai: Aviation regulator DGCA on Saturday suspended a first officer of SpiceJet for three months for mishearing an Air Traffic Control clearance, due to which he gave incorrect direction to the pilot-in-command (PIC), causing runway incursion at Mumbai airport, said a source. "DGCA probe found that Atul Yadav, who was first officer on Surat-Mumbai flight on July 5, told the PIC that their plane was cleared by ATC to cross runway 14. The truth is the clearance was given to the IndiGo plane that was ahead of his plane," the source told PTI. The SpiceJet plane had the call sign SEJ2763. When the regulator issued a show-cause notice to Yadav on August 19, he responded by admitting his mistake and stating the incursion happened on July 5 because another plane with a similar call sign which was ahead of their plane had received the ATC clearance to cross runway 14, the source said. The aircraft ahead of the SpiceJet plane was of IndiGo and it had a call sign IGO063, the source said. 31/08/19 PTI/Business Today New Delhi: In the last 2.5 years, IndiGo Airbus A320 Neos have on an average seen one faulty Pratt & Whitney (PW) engines powering these planes being changed every week. The Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) has in a RTI reply said 126 PW engines on IndiGo Neos have been replaced from 2016 to June 30, 2019. The almost once-a-week average of faulty engine replacement comes with 46 engines being replaced in calendar years 2017, 2018 each and 27 in the first six months of this year (remaining 7 in 2016).
