M.K. Stalin Criticises Cancellation of Parandur Airport Project
· India · The Hindu, Indian Express
Former Chief Minister M.K. Stalin has condemned the Tamil Nadu government's decision to drop the planned airport project in Parandur, calling it an irreversible setback for the state's growth. Stalin argued that the site was selected after a thorough evaluation and that significant preparatory work had already been completed. He expressed concern that restarting the site selection process would delay development and negatively impact the state's investment appeal. DMK MLAs staged a walkout from the Assembly to protest the announcement, which was made by Chief Minister C. Joseph Vijay under Rule 110.
Why it matters
The cancellation of this major infrastructure project creates uncertainty for Tamil Nadu's aviation expansion and could influence the state's competitive standing in attracting industrial investment.
