Former President Abdulla Yameen alleged that the government plans to sell Hanimaadhoo International Airport to India's Adani Group, claiming Maldivian delegation members met the group's chairman in Singapore. Economic Minister Mohamed Saeed denied the allegation, while the Construction Minister said the airport expansion is 88.7% complete and on track to finish by September.
One outlet so far Only Maldives Republic has reported this among the sources we monitor. A gap in what we monitor, not proof that others did not report it.
It is reported that the Hanimaadhoo airport is being sold to the Adani Group.
As far as I know, among the people who met this time, they met the chairman of the Adani Group in Singapore.
There is no truth whatsoever to the rumours that Hanimaadhoo Airport will be sold or leased to a foreign party, or that any meetings took place in Singapore about such a deal
Nothing to compare yet. If another monitored source reports it, its headline appears beside this one.
The US$136.6 million expansion includes a new 2.46-kilometre runway capable of accommodating A320 and Boeing 737 aircraft
