The Centre has denied clearance to the international cricket stadium planned by Kerala Cricket Association at Edakochi near Kochi holding that it violates Coastal Regulation Norms, the Environment and Forest Minister, Mr Jairam Ramesh, said on Monday.
“Cricket Stadium at Edakochi is a closed chapter and it is not in the interest of Kerala and the nation,” Mr Ramesh said here after a meeting with the Chief Minister, Mr Oommen Chandy.
Coming up of the stadium would lead to destruction of mangroves in the area, he said, adding, “directive had been issued to take action for Violation of Coastal Regulation Norms.”
