KOLKATA: Close on the heels of Reliance chairman Mukesh Ambani’s Rs 4,000-crore investment plans in West Bengal, it may soon be younger brother Anil Ambani’s turn to make high-voltage project announcements in the state.
It’s not official yet, but the Reliance-Anil Dhirubhai Ambani Group (R-ADAG ) is keen on participating in the Rs 2,000-crore light-rail transit (LRT) system venture in Kolkata, top Writers’ Buildings circles told ET. The upcoming LRT venture will involve the running of multiple passenger vehicles operating on steel rails. Such passenger vehicles will be powered by overhead electrical wires.
A high-powered R-ADAG team led by group director Rajesh Tiwari, it is learnt, recently met senior West Bengal government officials in the state commerce & industry and transport departments, indicating the group’s interest in executing the LRT venture in Kolkata.
Indications are that Reliance Energy will execute the project with an international partner once the Buddhadeb Bhattacharjee-led Left Front government in West Bengal gives the go-ahead to R-ADAG .
