Senior Ministers Inspect 110-Acre SEZ Site For Mahanadu

Senior ministers conducted a site inspection of a 110-acre Special Economic Zone (SEZ) earmarked for the Mahanadu event and assessed preparations for infrastructure and logistics. The delegation reviewed access routes, power and water provisioning, and the layout intended to host large gatherings. Officials accompanied the ministers to brief them on current progress and outstanding tasks.

Inspectors examined plans for temporary structures and seating to ensure capacity and safety standards. They also checked arrangements for sanitation, medical aid points and parking to manage inflows effectively. Emphasis was placed on ensuring unobstructed emergency access and clear signage for attendees.

They reviewed power arrangements including back-up generators and distribution plans to avoid disruptions. Water reserves and distribution networks were evaluated to support hygiene and catering services. Waste management protocols and drainage measures were inspected to mitigate environmental impact. Coordination mechanisms with local agencies and emergency services were discussed to finalise operational responsibilities.

The ministers directed officials to expedite remaining works and to present a detailed timeline ahead of the event. They asked for regular progress reports and a schedule of follow-up inspections to ensure milestones are met. Local stakeholders were instructed to facilitate traffic management and community liaison to reduce disruption. Authorities said readiness would be verified through final rehearsals and system tests before opening.

The SEZ site is intended to support event infrastructure as well as long-term economic activity through improved facilities and transport links. Ministers noted that completed amenities would aid local businesses and create opportunities in hospitality and logistics. Planning emphasised sustainable practices and minimal disruption to nearby communities.

Officials will coordinate with transport agencies to manage public movement during the event. A comprehensive communication plan is to be issued to inform attendees and residents of routes and timings. Further inspections are scheduled to confirm readiness and to address any remaining concerns.
