more-inResidents of Pattathammal Street situated near the international airport here have stoutly opposed the acquisition of their lands by the revenue authorities for the airport expansion project on the grounds that it would severely affect their livelihood.
“However, we refused to accept the contention made by the revenue authorities”, said Vinayagamoorthy who was part of the team that went for the talks.
A section of residents who took part in the meeting which was also attended by officials from the Airports Authority of India and the City Police refused to accept the decision of the revenue authorities regarding land acquisition.
