Special Economic Zone de-notification reduces SEZ area, enabling land transfer for fisheries research and women's hostel. Central Government de-notifies 4.4654 hectares from the sector-specific IT SEZ at Village Mulavana, Kollam, making the SEZ area 13.5346 hectares. The State entity proposed the de-notification, the State Government approved it, and the Development Commissioner recommended deletion. Out of the de-notified land, a major portion will be transferred to the State revenue department for allotment to the Fisheries Department for a research centre and the remainder will be used for a working women's hostel. The de-notification is issued under the Central Government's statutory powers and applicable SEZ Rules after satisfaction of legal prerequisites.
