Centre has given regulatory clearance to three mega infrastructure projects with an investment of 25,000 crore rupees.

This was disclosed by Financial Services Secretary D K Mittal after a project review meeting chaired by Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee in New Delhi yesterday.

He said, the projects are a power project in Vishakhapatnam, metro rail project in Hyderabad and a road project in Andhra Pradesh. These projects were held up because of regulatory bottlenecks.

Commerce and Industry Minister Anand Sharma, Environment Minister Jayanthi Natarajan and Power Minister Sushil Kumar Shinde also attended the review meeting.
