Prime Minister Manmohan Singh is set to personally oversee the progress of the Navi Mumbai airport project, ensuring that the residents impacted will receive a share of 22.5 percent of the developed land, which incorporates an average floor space index of two in the region.
Growers from the vicinity have been excited to find that they will receive fair compensation. The land that is being acquired is slated for transformation into a state-of-the-art airport that meets international standards. The proposed facilities will be exceptional for travelers far and wide.
Several pressing matters pertaining to the new airport were carefully deliberated, including the Churchgate-Virar Elevated Suburban Rail Corridor, the Mumbai Trans Harbour Link (MTHL), Colaba-Bandra SEEPZ, Salt Pan Land, and Indu Mills Land.
A high-ranking meeting recently took place in Mumbai, during which Prime Minister Singh was joined by notable figures such as Pritiviraj Chavan, Sharad Pawar, P Chidambaram, Montek Singh Ahluwalia, Ajit Pawar, along with other ministers and officials to address these critical issues.
In a bid to rejuvenate the infrastructure sector in Maharashtra, a significant new project worth Rs 9,689 crore for the MTHL has been officially announced. The Chief Minister has urged the Prime Minister to designate it as a National Project and provide sufficient financial assistance for its realization.
The ambitious new mega project encompasses an impressive 22 kilometers, aiming to establish a seamless connection from Mumbai to Navi Mumbai, Pune, Goa, and regions in South India.
The state government has pressed the Prime Minister to engage with the infrastructure initiatives actively, in order to eliminate blockages and assist the state in the expeditious approval of various projects.
