Thiruvananthapuram: Toughening its stands against the Vizhinjam port and the public sector undertaking overseeing the project, Latin Archdiocese on Sunday said it will not be intimidated by the compensation claims worth over Rs 78 crore.
Responding to the Vizhinjam International Seaport Ltd's (VISL) recommendation to the state government that losses caused to the Adani Group should be recouped from the Church, Latin Archdiocese Vicar General Fr. Eugene Pereira told Manorama News that protestors will not be scared by such tactics.
He said VISL has been acting as a middleman and henchman of Adani Group. "Who will compensate crores of rupees loss suffered by the fisherfolk in livelihood due to the project," he asked.
