Vadhavan port project faces continued resistance from Palghar villagers
Residents of Palghar in Maharashtra oppose the Vadhavan port project, citing threats to their fishing livelihoods, agricultural land, and future prospects. The proposed ₹76,220‑crore port would alter coastal ecosystems and displace communities. Local villagers, joined by opposition parties, argue the development would erode sea access and farmland, jeopardizing their economic security. The project faces mounting resistance amid environmental and social concerns.
