  • The DMK government proposed a second Chennai airport at Parandur in 2022, at a cost of about Rs 20,000 crore.
  • Villagers there fought it for years, saying it would take fertile farmland and damage local water bodies.
  • Vijay backed them before taking office, and told the Assembly on Monday that the project is being dropped.
  • Stalin says the decision sets Tamil Nadu back by years, and that its interests cannot be mortgaged to politics.
