Kollam Port (Kollam കൊല്ലം)


An important PORT IN KOLLAM. Kerala govt always neglected this port. Now with vizhinjam being developed as container terminal and deep water port, its the death bell for this 2000 year old port. But people of kollam are not worried. since they dont want any development

This port is 'developed' by Govt to be fishing port. Apart from inaguration , nothing has been done. Kerala Govt is developing Vizhinjam(Not an existing port)
at 8000 crores in BOT model neglecting 2000 yr old kollam port(i dont we can call it a port).This is part of Total neglect of Kerala GOVT towards kollam. Not single project worth to mention has been implemented in kollam for 50 yrs after independace. Kollam sent 5 ministers in this LDF ministry and 5 in last UDF ministry. all are like kuravan kollathu poyathu pole. doing nathing to kollam
