In a significant development, villagers opposing the Navi Mumbai international airport project are falling in line and have agreed to give their letter of consent for the acquisition of 671 hectares of land to the City and Industrial Development Corporation (Cidco).
Enthused by the villagers’ change of mind, Cidco, the nodal agency for the airport project, has announced that the first lottery for allotment of 22.5 per cent of land as compensation to project affected persons (PAPs) would be drawn on August 15 at Pushpaknagar, Dapoli near National Highway No. 4B. The possession of the plot would be given once the Pushpaknagar land, where the PAPs are to be rehabilitated, is developed.
Cidco has launched the land filling and levelling of Pushpaknagar and has also started a geographical survey of villages adopting the rehabilitation package. Cidco has already hinted that the airport’s first phase would be operational by December 2018. It has extended the time for submission of requests for qualification till July 30.
