भारतीय अरबपति बिज़नेसमैन गौतम अदाणी का उत्तरी क्वींसलैंड का कारामाइकल कोलमाइन प्रोजेक्ट, 18 मई को होने वाले ऑस्ट्रेलियाई चुनाव में एक अहम मुद्दा बन गया है.

इस प्रोजेक्ट के चलते आर्थिक, पर्यावरण, कोयला और जलवायु परिवर्तन के मुद्दे पर मतदाता और राजनीतिक दल बंटे हुए नज़र आ रहे हैं.

सात संभावित निर्दलीय उम्मीदवारों ने एक अहम समझौते पर हस्ताक्षर किया है. ऑस्ट्रेलियन कंज़र्वेशन फ़ाउंडेशन (एसीएफ) के संयोजन में इन सदस्यों ने संसद सदस्य के तौर पर चुने जाने पर जलवायु परिवर्तन को ध्यान में रखते हुए कई क़दम उठाने का वादा किया है. इसमें अदाणी के थर्मल कोलमाइन प्रोजेक्ट का विरोध भी शामिल है.

The festival began yesterday with a Deepavali Fair and runs until November 6. Five Indian artists from a musical group are due to leave Delhi on a code-share flight with Qantas and festival organisers fear that if an alternative flight cannot be found, performances may need to be cancelled and 1,600 tickets refunded.
