Maha puts land purchase for $44-bn Saudi Aramco refinery on hold
Maharashtra has stayed the process to buy land for the $44-billion refinery that state-run oil companies are building with Saudi Aramco, CM Devendra Fadnavis said. Thousands of farmers have refused to surrender land, fearing the project could damage a region known for its Alphonso mangoes. The 60 million tonnes per annum refinery and petrochemical complex would be India's biggest.
