Bhogapuram airport: heavy police deployed at project site

Vizinagaram: Police have taken control of nine revenue panchayats where the Bhogapuram international airport is proposed to be built even as YSR Congress (YSRC) leaders prepared for a tour of the troubled region by YSRC president Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy on Monday.

Farmers are opposed to their land being mandatorily acquired for the project and have been blocking official despatched to the area for preparatory work.

Mr Jagan Mohan Reddy, the Leader of the Opposition, is scheduled to address public meetings at Kavulavada and Gudepuvalasa.
