Thiruvananthapuram - The Kerala State Govt is set to approve the ambitious Outer Area Growth Corridor (OAGC) project, aimed at creating an economic corridor as part of the Vizhinjam Port-led industrialization. The revised masterplan, submitted by the OAGC consultant, Capital Region Development Programme (CRDP)-II, will soon be reviewed by the state cabinet for clearance.

According to APM Mohammed Hanish, principal secretary, industries, the OAGC will be implemented swiftly due to global investor interest in setting up industries near the port. To expedite the process, the govt may opt for land acquisition instead of land . . .
