Parandur Airport Project Cancelled | Vijay Government Cites Wetlands & Unsuitable Runway Land

The Tamil Nadu government led by Joseph Vijay has officially decided to scrap the proposed Parandur Greenfield Airport project near Chennai. The government cited technical concerns, stating that a significant portion of the acquired land is unsuitable for runway construction because of extensive water bodies and wetlands. The ambitious 4,970-acre airport project had faced continuous protests since 2022. Farmers, local residents, and environmental activists opposed the project over fears of displacement, loss of agricultural land, and destruction of ecologically sensitive wetlands. #vijay #tamilnadu #chennai #parandurairport #wion #breakingnews #tamilnadunews About Channel: WION The World is One News examines global issues with in-depth analysis.
