Samiti contests Aranmula airport company’s claims

Pathanamthitta: The claim of the KGS Aranmula International Airport Limited that the company has completed all formalities for setting up the private airport in Aranmula is suspicious and misleading, Thiruvaranmula Paithruka Grama Karma Samiti (TPGKS) president K. Haridas has said.
In a statement here on Saturday, he alleged that the company official’s announcement on the proposal to set up a special economic zone in Aranmula amounted to challenging the government.
The three villages of Aranmula, Mallappuzhassery and Kidangannur were declared industrial areas through the backdoor, keeping people in the dark, he alleged. Mr. Haridas said the government should clarify whether the announcement of the private company was with the knowledge of the State authorities. He said the vacation court here had issued an injunction order preventing the KGS Group from entering the illegally converted portion of paddy land in Aranmula.
