17 Feb 2023 CW Team

According to Jewar MLA Dhirendra Singh, around 13,000 families may need to relocate as a result of the second phase expansion of the Noida International Airport.

According to the MLA, it has been agreed to give households that need to move two possibilities for resettlement: near Faleda Cut and at Modelpur, both of which are close to the airport. This decision was made in response to villagers' requests.

For the second phase of the airport's expansion, six villages — Dayanatpur, Karauli Bangar, Mudrah, Beerampur, Kuraib, and Ranhera — are providing about 1,365 hectares of land.

"The airport's second phase of construction will have an impact on about 18,500 families. 13320 families from Ranhera, Kuraib, and Nagla Hukam Singh (part of the village of Karauli Bangar) will have to evacuate out of this total "Singh Dhirendra stated.

He continued by saying that 1,600 of the families who will receive rehabilitation come from Nagla Hukam Singh, 6,120 from Ranhera, and 5,600 from Kuraib.

After the rehabilitation and resettlement sites were decided upon, SDM Abhay Singh stated that any objections from interested parties would be welcomed. The final proposal would be submitted to the state government for approval following that procedure, he said.

Also, more than 1,300 hectares of land were purchased for the 'greenfield' airport's initial development. According to officials, the first phase of construction is presently in full swing, and flying operations are expected to start in September 2024.

The Noida International Airport, when finished in four phases by mid-2040, will be the biggest airport in India and cover an area of about 5,000 hectares.
