MADC Begins Demolition for Nagpur Airport Expansion

16 Jan 2025 CW Team

The Maharashtra Airport Development Company (MADC) has started demolishing structures in Shivangaon village as part of the land clearance process for the expansion of Nagpur Airport, which will include the construction of a second runway. The project is progressing as plans to hand over the airport to GMR gather momentum. MADC officials have stated that the second runway will pass through Shivangaon, and the demolition of structures will continue for the next month.

In 2016-17, local residents were compensated with land at Chinchbhuvan, although many chose to remain in Shivangaon, renting out their properties or allowing relatives to occupy them. A 13-hectare parcel in Shivangaon is yet to be cleared. 亚博体育官网首页s identified for demolition have been marked with crosses, signalling their removal. According to the land swap agreement, MADC will transfer 288 hectares of land to the Indian Air Force (IAF) in exchange for land near the airport, which will be used for expansion. Locals have expressed dissatisfaction with the compensation provided, arguing that it was insufficient to rebuild their homes.
