The Maharashtra government has approved the appointment of three land acquisition officers for the Purandar Airport project in Pune district. This follows a proposal by the Pune district administration. The officers will oversee the acquisition of 2,673.982 hectares of land across seven villages—Vanpuri, Udachiwadi, Kumbharvalan, Ekhatpur, Munjawadi, Khanwadi, and Pargaon.

As per the government gazette issued by the Department of Industries, Energy, Labour and Mining, Kalyan Pandhare (land acquisition officer no. 1) will handle Vanpuri, Kumbharvalan, and Udachiwadi; Varsha Landge, sub-divisional officer of Purandar taluka, will manage Ekhatpur, Munjawadi, and Khanwadi; and Sangeeta Chougule (land acquisition officer no. 3) will oversee Pargaon.

The acquisition process will follow the Land Acquisition Act 2013 and start with action under Section 32(2) of the Maharashtra Industrial Development Act. Notices will be published, and joint land measurements and drone surveys will be conducted to assess land use.

Compensation will be calculated accordingly. The state has proposed compensation at four times the market value. Farmers have been urged to cooperate with the acquisition process.
