New Government Has No Immediate Plans for UTF Development

Minister of Infrastructure Dr Abdulla Muththalib announced that the government of President Dr. Mohamed Muizzu has no immediate plans to develop Uthuru-Thilafalhu (UTF), citing costs, the need for a larger bridge to Hulhumalé, and priorities at Gulhifalhu and Giraavaru. The former government's pledge to reclaim 251 hectares at UTF remains unfulfilled, while the current administration focuses on the Fushidhiggaru urbanisation initiative, allocated MVR 400 million in the 2024 state budget.
