Andhra Pradesh High Court Orders Verification of Clearances for Google-Adani Data Centre
The Andhra Pradesh High Court directed the state government to verify that the Google-Adani data centre project in Visakhapatnam has all necessary legal and environmental clearances. The court emphasized that environmental permissions cannot be bypassed and asked for a consolidated response from relevant departments. The petitioner raised concerns about land transfer irregularities and the absence of Google's name in clearance documents. The court will review the matter further next week, with the state government expected to clarify its position.
