In scrapping Parandur airport, Vijay keeps promise that defined his first political protest
Tamil Nadu Chief Minister C Joseph Vijay announced the scrapping of the proposed ₹27,000-crore Parandur airport, fulfilling a key promise from his first political protest. The project, planned over 5,746 acres, faced resistance from local residents. This decision resolves a political issue but raises planning challenges for Chennai, which needs a second airport.
