The proposal submitted early this year by Indian conglomerate Adani Group to Kenya Airports Authority to develop and renovate parts of Jomo Kenyatta International Airport has recently been made public.

Billionaire Gautam Adani’s proposal to run Kenya’s main airport has sparked protests, Senate hearings and lawsuits against the group controlled by Asia’s second-richest man, even as it bags a deal to construct high-voltage power transmission lines in the East African nation.

A big controversy has erupted in Kenya after the Indian company, Adani Group, proposed a deal to run the country’s largest airport, Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA). The company known for managing airports and other large projects has offered to take control of JKIA for 30 years and expand its operations.

Gautam Adani's proposal to manage Kenya's main airport has led to protests, Senate hearings, and lawsuits. The bid, which includes a 30-year concession and investment of $1.85 billion, faces criticism for lack of transparency.
