Following is an excerpt on this from a report in Pioneer.

The Vedanta group has been entrusted by the Beach Development Committee to illuminate the city beach. In wake of failure of Government and NGOs to provide weather sustainable lights in the five kilometre stretch of beach along the city’s coast even after spending about Rs 1 crore, the committee had requested the Vedanta University project officials to take up the work. At the Saturday meeting of the committee, the officials of Vedanta had agreed to the proposal.
