CM urges PM to withdraw VGF repayment norm for Vizhinjam

Pinarayi urged the Prime Minister to withdraw the Union finance ministry's norm making it mandatory for the state to repay the VGF.

In his letter, Pinarayi pointed out that since the Union finance ministry introduced the VGF scheme in 2005, never in the past such a payback has been demanded by the finance ministry under VGF scheme. Vizhinjam project would be the only exception in the country where the Union government has demanded a payback.
