Promoters raising disputes: VS

Thiruvananthapuram: Chief Minister V.S. Achuthanandan said here on Wednesday that the Dubai-based promoters of SmartCity project were not coming forward to implement it as they had been hit by the global economic crisis. So, they were raising disputes over matters extraneous to their agreement with the government.

Talking to reporters, he said the government was trying to sort out the matter amicably. In any case, the government would go ahead with the project.

If the present promoters were reluctant to take up the project, others would be identified to carry out the project, he said.
