Pune: After the Pune district administration put up three alternative sites for the proposed international airport in Pune district, the state government is keen on re-surveying the Chakan site. In a recent review meeting on the issue, it was found that the earlier survey conducted on the site had not given a proper report. If the site is found favourable, it will be a boost to the industrial sector in the area.
“It was found that the agency that had conducted the survey had not given a correct report. An actual recce of the said land gives a different picture. The survey report seems to be botched-up and so it is necessary that a fresh survey is conducted,’’ said a senior official from the civil aviation department in the state government.
The official said that a Nashik-based surveyer had provided the report to the Airport Authority of India and it needs to be re-looked as the area seems better. “We have to align the runways according to directives and this site seems to be better on this front,” said the official post a survey done last week.
