KOCHI: Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who will arrive in Kerala’s Kochi later today, will announce Rs. 16,504 crore for the southern state when he unveils an integrated Bharat Petroleum Corporation Limited (BPCL) refinery expansion complex. This will be the single-largest investment made by the prime minister in Kerala.
