TN Chief Secy holds talks on airport expansion project

CHENNAI: Tamil Nadu Chief Secretary L K Tripathy on Sunday visited the city airport and held discussions with the officials on the airport expansion project.

Sources said that Tripathy spoke to the top officials over the land acquisition for the new airport planned at Manapakkam village in Kanchipuram district.

On Dec 5, 2007, the Madras High Court had restrained the Tamil Nadu government from proceeding further on acquisition of lands of Manapakkam village, after 15 persons approached the court to stay the land acquisition.

The government has identified 1,070 acres in Sriperumbudur taluk for the expansion of the Chennai airport.
