With land acquisition process for the proposed expansion of Tiruchi airport not making much headway, Tiruchi MP Su.Thirunavukkarasar has mooted a joint meeting with local Ministers, revenue and airport officials to discuss the issues involved and expedite the process. He made the suggestion at the Airport Advisory Committee meeting chaired by him here on Saturday. “Now that we have two Ministers from Tiruchi, I suggested to the Airport Director that the Collector may be requested to convene a joint meeting with them. I will also make a request. Revenue and AAI officials can participate in the meeting and discuss ways to sort out of the issues in land acquisition,” Mr. Thirunavukkarasar told The Hindu.More Related News
