The proposed expansion of Chennai Airport to the Manapakkam village in Kanchipuram province of India, has been halted for now by the Madras High Court.
The state government had decided to purchase 635 hectares of land in order to extend and improve the airport. However, the court found that under the Airport Authority of India Act 1994, power for acquisition of land relating to the airport rests only with the Indian national government.
